This week in maths, we looked at formal division. Most children found this to be difficult to start with, but with some practise throughout the week, they're getting the hang of it now. Homework this week is further practise answering word problems and using formal division.
In English, we continued with our class novel, The Butterfly Lion. Within the novel, several African animals are mentioned. Children picked one of these animals, researched it and made point form notes. Next, they made a persuasive poster in pairs. These posters turned out really well and will be used to improve upon when we do our Mediterranean travel brochures next week.
In topic, children now know what Mediterranean country they will be making a travel brochure about. They will need to research this particular country then design their brochure so that it is eye-catching and informative. We're gearing up to having our very own travel fair before half-term break!

I suggest you try to gather some information over the weekend if at all possible, as we'll only have one lesson with the iPads/laptops next week!
Top Spellers this week were: Cerys, Lewis, Gracie, Scarlett S, Ava, Amilia, Owen W, Maya, Amy, Krissy, Max and Corey. Well done! +2 HPs each!
Spellings for next week (-ture ending words):
puncture - The tyre got a puncture and will need replacing.
lecture - At the lecture, the Professor spoke about outer space.
adventure - Let's go on an adventure!
nature - It's human nature to be kind to others.
departure - I hope we don't miss our departure!
+ 5 of your own.
The Good Behaviour Award, the Good Work Award and the Class DOJO Winner will all be carried over to next week.
Be sure to study your spellings and times tables. Also be sure to read and record in your reading record. Ensure you have your PE kit for Tuesday (cricket) and your homework handed in by Tuesday! Well done to all of you who brought in wellies/spare boots to wear outside in the snow at break time. Make sure you bring a hat and gloves to keep warm too.
Have a great weekend everyone!
