We have had another wonderful week here in Class 5 and I can't believe we have only 3 weeks left until the next half-term break!

 

We have been working REALLY hard in maths lessons this week, looking at converting between different units of measurement for example converting from cm to m. We have had a really positive attitude to such a difficult topic and persevered with a growth mindset. I have been really proud to see how hard all the children have worked. 

 

In English we have continued our work on persuasive writing, this week focussing on a persuasive brochure. We have practiced writing rhetorical questions, exaggerated language, metaphorical language and repetition to put into our finished writing later in the week. 

 

We have continued with our Mandarin lessons too, learning how to say how tall/short someone is, practicing the numbers up to 100 and even learning how to talk about different facial features.

 

In PE we have continued practicing for our dance performance next month, even introducing some amazing props!

 

Finally, in our topic lessons we have been focussing on geography and science. In Geography, we learned about the physical and human features of South America and in science we learned about all the different parts of a plant.

 

Happy weekend everyone!
