This week in English we have thought about cause and effect alongside emphasis, using both in our interest board paragraphs. We’ve also considered how to change the tone of our writing for the author’s note. In Maths we’ve been learning the column method for addition and subtraction (without briding 10 or exchanging). See this week’s sheets here: Maths In Geography we have learned about the 4 different human uses of rivers: energy, water access, transport and leisure. In STEM we’ve learned about, and made posters for the life cycle of a plant.
Next week:
