Maths
Throughout this week we have continued working on our Place Value Unit and have focused on ordering numbers to at least 1,000,000. During our lessons we have used both concrete, pictorial and abstract methods to order numbers and finished the week by completing some problem solving questions.

Literacy
'Mr Stink' has once again been the focus of our Literacy lessons this week. We began the week by discussing the purpose of an Agony Aunt and why people would write letters to a magazine asking for help. Using our knowledge of the story so far and the work we have been doing on characterisation, we identified 'Chloe's' problems and the reasons why she may need to write to an Agony Aunt.  We have used this to start writing our own letters from the perspective of Chloe.
