Year Five/Six News 

Students from S4 have finished off their fractions unit and are now jumping into Data and Graph making. We will be looking at statistics from the Olympic Games in Paris from a variety of different sports. We will make lots of different graphs which will create a visual representation from the data we collect. 

In reading, we are identifying figurative language where students will focus on similes, metaphors, personification, onomatopoeia, oxymoron, hyperbole and idioms. 

In writing, our class worked on understanding the significance of an Acknowledgement of Country and will learn how to write their own Acknowledgement of Country, showing respect for Indigenous cultures and histories. We have also just finished writing a letter to our Olympic stars who have competed in France.
