This week, we have begun our RE unit of advent. In preparation for the advent service on Tuesday, we have been learning about the Jesse Tree and its meaning and symbols. Along with this, is the new home learning pyramid for this unit, the deadline for these pieces of home learning are the Friday of the last week of term.
In maths, we have been looking at fractions. Children have been practicing identifying fractions based on different graphical representations and also comparing and ordering fractions with the same and different denominators. We have started to think about equivalence and how using a fraction wall can be a useful way to find equivalent fractions.
Here are some pictures from today’s lesson on comparing and finding equivalent fractions.
In Literacy, we have continued to read and study the Iron Man by Ted Hughes. Children have planned their own Iron Man sequels and are in the final stages of their apprentice writes before writing a draft and final version next week.
