English

This week in English we have been tackling playscripts. We have read our book (Stone Age Boy) and created our own version in the form of a play. We have been looking at all the different features we need to use and including them in our writing, such as character lists, dialogue, narration and stage directions.

Next week we will continue to write our playscripts, looking further into the skills needed.

Maths

We have been focusing on subtraction this week, using both mental tactics and the column method. We have been solving subtraction problems and learning how to exchange when answering questions using the column method.

Next week we will be recapping both multiplication and division.

Topic

We have been discovering how scientists know so much about prehistory by looking at fossils and how they are made. We now understand the process of fossilisation, how certain types of rocks are made and how soil is created from rocks over a long period of time.

Next week is Online Safety Week, when we will be learning how to stay safe and happy online.
