Today we looked at what the word fair means and that it does not mean that everyone has to have the same or equal all of the time. We voted on different situations with our voting cards.

In todays experience lesson we have made our own boat just like the boy in our story and sailed with penguin to the south pole. There was some choppy water and angry clouds, so we got to experience a storm!
Today we have learnt which animals live in Antarctica and which animals live in the arctic circle. We found out that penguins live in Antarctica and the bottom of the world and polar bears live in the Arctic at the top of the world. We organised other animals like reindeers, killer whales and elk’s and seals.
After visiting the park and having no hope there finding out where penguin was from, the little boy decided to ask his duck in his bath…. annoyingly the duck had no idea either! He floated off with no explanation!
In our computing lesson today we have looked at algorithms in more depth and looked at why the instruction needs to be precise so that everyone does the same and follows it the same.
We learnt that editing an algorithm is called a bug.
Today we used our chotting and shared write from last week to help us to write the appearance section of our non chronological report. We used our target grids well today, trying to include varied conjunctions and different openers. This afternoon we started chotting for the next section, a tigers habitat. We all took part in a shared write, trying hard to make positive contributions.
We have learnt about Georges Seurat this week and how he painted his artwork using pointillism. We then practised this on our own lizard.
We are all so excited that we have not got a cheerleading club running at lunchtimes. We cannot wait to see your routines!
In writing today, we wrote PP3 which was all about the surge of water breaking through the ice dam. We picked up the pace needed in this writing lesson and used shorter sentences for the effect. We used lots of features such as expanded noun phrases, fronted adverbials and even managed to use a simile! 😀 What a fantastic writing lesson! We can’t wait to write PP4 on Monday!
