Maths
This half term we have been looking at fractions. We have looked at converting improper fractions to mixed number fractions ande vice versa. We have then moved onto comparing and ordering fractions that have different denominators. We have created some rules to help us understand this.
Alongisde learning about fractions, we have continued to practice our times tables and have been improving our fluency of our times tables.
English
In our English, we have started a new book on Ernest Shackleton and his journey to the Antarctic. We have learned about Ernest Shackleton and his crew. We were each given a crew member that we had to research and we created a fact file about them. We have studied the front cover of the book and created our own version.
