Welcome back and I hope everyone had a nice break.
In literacy this week we have started looking at newspaper articles about space travel, identifying the features found in reports. Next week will continue by text mapping an article before planning our own. In maths we have been learning and practising our times tables, including 6’s, 7’s, and 9’s. This will continue into next week when we move onto formal written methods of multiplication and division. In our topic work we have been studying the 8 points of a compass, looking at maps and comparing the geographical location of countries around the world. The children have really enjoyed following instructions, moving in different directions, using a compass to help them.
