This week in Maths we will be recapping column method addition and subtraction. Following that, we will be looking at the new skill of long multiplication then moving onto plotting and reading data on line graphs.
In English, we will be focusing on non-chronological reports; we will be doing a non-chronological reading comprehension and then building up the skills we will need to write our own non-chronological report.

English – Day 1
LO: To retrieve facts from non-fiction sources
Before the holidays, we started to look at non-chronological reports and completed one as a cold write all about sloths.
Task 1 - Ask a parent to test you: from the checklist, how many features of a non-chronological report can you recall?
​
Today you have a non-chronological report to read and then answer questions on. Remember, this is NOT a memory test – use the text to find the answers to the questions. As you are reading, you might want to underline any key facts or words you are not sure about. Either use a dictionary to check the meaning of the word or ask an adult to help you.
Task 2 – Reading comprehension
​
