Literacy 

This week the fabulous writers in Team JF have embraced the exciting opportunity to teach lots of other wonderful pupils in Park Street. We decided as we had become experts on the subject of 'The Great Fire of London' that we would share our knowledge with others by writing fact files to be placed in our own school library. The children started by exploring nonfiction texts and identifying their features. From this we focused our learning on grammatical features to include in our pieces such as apostrophes for possession and contractions. 

We have started the first draft of our pieces and will publish these next week.. Watch this space! 

Maths 

In maths this week we have continued learning all about fabulous fractions! We moved on from halving shapes and into objects. The children's resilience towards their learning this week has really stood out and they were determined to master this tricky concept! As our learning progressed, we moved into splitting shapes into four equal pieces and using the term quarters. 

Our learning will continue next week, however, I am sure they will blow me away again with their amazing achievements!
