8th March 2013


4CA

This week in Maths we have been looking at rounding numbers, either whole or decimal. We have had another successful week of poetry with the children writing their own imagine poem using alliteration, simili, metaphors and personification. In Science were looked at animal skeleton’s and even had some real skulls. For ICT we have been learning how to make a branching database.

Year 6

Year 6 have had another successful, hard working week! In Maths, we have been brushing up on how to interpret data from pie charts and in English, both classes have been continuing to read their class novels. We have all really enjoyed making gas mask boxes (which involved some Maths, as we had to draw and cut out nets) and we cannot wait for our World War Two day out on the field. We will be making Anderson shelters, so stay tuned next week to see the outcome! Despite it being damp and foggy, Year 6 will not be put off and it’s sure to be a fantastic day!
In other news, this week Year 6 have started using Twitter- so please feel free to follow us @DarlinghurstY6 for regular updates and photos of our learning!
