We have had a lovely week in the Owls Class. 

In maths, we have been dividing by 5. To do this, we have been grouping and sharing. Show someone what you can do:

We have also been doubling and halving this week! We have been spotting patterns to help us with doubling and halving big numbers (e.g., half of 4 = 2, so I know half of 40 = 20). Can you half and double each of the numbers below? Remember when we double we are multiplying by 2 and when we are finding half we are dividing by 2:

We have also been spotting odd and even numbers. Tell someone at home how we know if a number is odd or even. Find the odd and even numbers below:

We have been practising lots of our reading and comprehension skills in English. We have completed some of our 'secret agent training' booklets (SATs papers) to help us to find information from a text. We have been working very hard on this! 

In topic, we have been learning about Australia's history. Can you use the images below to complete the timeline of Australia?

We have also been learning about the Australian Aboriginal culture. We have been learning about their traditions, what they eat, where they live, their music and their art. Can you remember anything you learnt about this culture?
