This week in Team DB we have been very busy in all areas of our learning. Literacy In Literacy, the children have been working very hard in their writing these past few weeks. We have been sudying poems by our class author, Michael Morpurgo. The children have been reading poems and short stories written about nature itself and trees, from his text, 'My Heart is a Tree'. Based on Morpurgo's love of nature, the children have been focussing upon adding similes and metaphors into their writing, as well as adding powerful adjectives and expaned noun phrases. Maths In our maths learning this week, we have been continuing our learning about decimal fractions. We have been developing our understanding about tenths and representing these using diennes, fractions and decimals. P.E. During our P.E. session this week, we have been sequencing our Bollywood style dance together. We worked as a whole class and used various moves and different dance styles, including the Peacock, Lotus, The Prayer as well as various foot movements. The children have enjoyed listening to the different music styles from Indian culture.
