Our learning this week…
In English the children have been working hard to plan their own mythical narratives based on our class text ‘Arthur and the Golden Rope’. We have also been exploring ways in which we can use abstract nouns to include more detail in our writing.
In Maths we have begun our new topic on using written methods to calculate longer multiplication and division. This week we have particularly focused on multiplying a 2-digit number by a 1-digit number., comparing two different methods to work efficiently.
In RE this week we have continued to build our understanding of the ways in which Jesus told parables to help people to understand the Good News. We focused in particular on the the parable of the Unforgiving Servant. The children enjoyed making links between the story and the heavenly message for Christians.
