Maths-We will be learning how to find the area and perimeter of rectilinear shapes (shapes made up of rectangles placed together) and moving on to our fractions unit.

In class we used this computer programme to practise finding an area. http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/mathgames/geometry/shapeshoot/AreaShapesShoot.htm

English-Writing–We will be writing and improving our recounts of our amazing Ranger Russ visit. Photos to follow.

Topic-We will be learning continuing our topic Rain forests, learning about products which are made in the rain forest biomes such as chocolate and coffee and explaining how they make their way from the forest to our supermarkets.

R.E-We will be continuing our work on Christianity and beginning to look at Easter.

P.E-Hopefully this week we will be finishing our unit on gymnastic sequences.

Computing-We will continue to develop our presentation skills using Powerpoint to present our finding about Rain forest tribes.

PSHE-This term we will be looking at ways we can keep ourselves safe and healthy.  There will be a focus on on-line safety and what you can do to keep the risks to yourself and others low.  We will also be continuing our Apple’s Friends work focusing on being assertive.
