Walnut Class Term 1 Week 3

We have enjoyed another week of great learning in Walnut Class!

This week in Literacy, we have been identifying nouns, nouns phrases, verbs, adjectives and adverbs, to support us with our descriptive writing. We have created very interesting character and setting descriptions this week.

In Maths this week, Year 4 have identified and partitioned numbers up to 1,000 and estimated numbers up to 1,000 by calculating the value of each interval on a number line. Year 3 have been learning to identify, represent and partition numbers up to 1,000, using Base 10, place value counters and arrow cards. They have all produced amazing learning!          

For our Geography learning this week, we have used an Atlas to identify major rivers around the world. We have also discussed what a continent is, named the seven continents and described the similarities and differences between the continents.

During our P.E. lesson this week, we learnt about the importance of physical exercise relating to our health. We learnt about the benefits of physical exercise and created drills that would increase our heart rate. We've been running to test our fitness.

This term, we are learning about what is like to be a Christian in Britain today. For our RE learning this week, we discussed the different ceremonies that Christians celebrate. We discussed why, when and how they have these ceremonies and their significance to Christians.
