We have been learning how to draw angles with a protractor this week. We got on really well with it.

We had a fire drill, which went really well. A few of us got a bit of a fright as the siren was so loud, but we all stood up and lined up straight away. We stayed together and got out really quickly. When we got back to the classroom we talked about what we would do if we were in different parts of the school when the alarm went off.

We learned about some of the jobs that women had to do during WW1. They worked very hard because they had to do all of the work at home and then they had to do lots of the jobs that the men used to do.

In literacy we were uplevelling our sentences, which means improving them by adding or changing vocabulary, connectives, openers or punctuation. It was a bit tricky at first, but we got the hang of it.
