Our learning last week:
Last week, we started our revision groupings for the lead-up to SATs. We have been recapping and embedding previous learning, whilst also learning different test techniques to take with us into our independent learning. In literacy, we have started the genre of persuasive letter writing - we introduced our vehicle text and will use and apply key vocabulary within informed sentences going forward. In geography, we used our immersion days to introduce and learn about climate change, what it presents as and how it causes an impact locally, nationally and globally.
Our learning this week:
This week, we will continue with our revision groupings as we lead-up towards SATs week. In literacy, we will gather reasons to support the intention of our writing, whilst looking further at how to use and apply persuasive language in context. In DT, we will be starting our sustainability project: a sustainable floating garden. We will be looking at existing products, understanding the concept of buoyancy, leading towards designing and making our own floating gardens based on design specification.
