Bon voyage!

This half term we have been working for Portal Travel.

As Travel Agents we had to research Africa and create information posters for our Travel Agents. This meant we had to learn all about non-fiction  texts and find out interesting facts about African people, places, food and more!

In English we have also learned about Jill Murphy stories – looking closely at the characters and setting and then using this to write our own versions.  We really enjoyed The Large Family book collection.

In Maths we have also been learning about multiplication and division and using arrays to help us work out calculations. Using counters and objects to do this!

As well as our study of Africa we have looked at the world oceans and continents and people of different nationalities and religions. We focussed on the Dutch artist Mondrian and tried to recreate some of his artwork.
