Term 6 Week 3

This week in Literacy, we have been looking at the structure and vocabulary used in formal letters. We learned about some of the mistakes made on board Titanic which may have contributed to it sinking. We used conjunctions and formal language to draft paragraphs expressing our disappointment with the company. 

In Maths, Year 4 have been looking at identifying the properties of triangles, quadrilaterals and polygons. Year 3 have been looking at converting units of time including days and weeks. 

In History this week, we learned about the Anglo Saxon invasion of Britain and how Britain came under the control of several different tribes following the fall of the Roman Empire. In DT we practiced our sewing skills and learned how to do a running stitch, with some children even trying cross stitch! In Science we conducted an experiment on how sound travels through different mediums and described how the sounds changed.

We hope you have a lovely weekend, 

Mr Saunders, Mrs Mallon and Mrs Ali.
