In Maths, we have been continuing our learning with place. This week we have looked at representing numbers to 1000 and 10,000, partitioning numbers and discussing various problems relating to these areas. We have used the concept of thinking about the problem, preparing what we are going to say using our whiteboards, discussing and then sharing our thoughts.

In Science, we looked at involuntary muscles being the muscles that we cannot control, including our heart. We also looked at voluntary muscles, the muscles that we can control. Pupils had to write about what a voluntary and involuntary muscle was and then organise the muscles into either voluntary or involuntary.

In Geography, we looked at what a compass was and how these are used to support navigation. Pupils had to label a compass with all 8 points.

In English, we have been continuing our sentence stacking lessons where we have looked at what the wolf's inner thoughts might be when he realises that he has no sugar. Pupils have had to use complex sentences to show how the wolf was walking to the straw house and repetition in sentences for effect.

In R.E, we have started our learning on the following enquiry question: Does joining the Khalsa make someone a better Sikh?  The pupils discussed clubs they belong to and what it feels like to belong to a group/community. Pupils discussed what they had to do to be part of their chosen club, how they have a sense of belonging and the feelings they felt throughout, such as; proud, happy, excited, respected. Pupils had the opportunity to watch a video where a child went to a martial arts club and shared the feelings she felt before joining and when she had joined. As well as this, the child shared how they represent their club, the uniform they wear and how they feel wearing the uniform.
