Our learning this week…
In English the children have been working well to edit and improve their own mythical narratives based on our class text ‘Arthur and the Golden Rope’. We have been particularly focusing on how we might use fronted adverbials, prepositions and a range of expanded noun phrases to develop our use of description of characters and setting.
In Maths we have been exploring some ways we can use part whole models to calculate division calculations of 2-digit numbers, using our knowledge of multiples to make the most efficient choices. We have also been learning how to work our remainders when dividing.
In RE this week we have continued to explore 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 were able to reflect on the key message of forgiveness and they were encouraged to make links to other teachings of Jesus relating to this theme.
