Ithaca Class week ending – 29.11.24

This week in Ithaca…

In Maths, we have focused on strengthening knowledge of multiplying and dividing by 7, 11 and 12 in order to become more fluent in the 7, 11 and 12 times-tables. The children have constructed fact families and used concrete and pictorial representations to make links between multiplication and division.

In English, we focused on understanding events from the text, creating and describing a hero and villain and writing an opening paragraph that introduces their hero. The children were able to use evidence from the text to support their responses. Furthermore, the children used word mats and thesaurus to choose various adjectives to write an engaging character description.

In Computing, we have learnt about the program ‘Scratch’. The children have developed understanding of how a Scratch game works by using decomposition to identify key features, deciphering actions that make the quiz game work and understanding what a variable is and how it works within a program.
