	<link>https://www.parkwayacademy.co.uk/blog/?pid=85&amp;nid=2&amp;storyid=639</link>	<description><![CDATA[<p>In English, we have been continuing with our sentence stacking lessons, looking at how Hogarth heard noises and noticing Iron Man. We used similes, adverbs, verbs and feelings. In our other sentence stacking lessons this week we used questions, prepositions and adjectives to describe various aspects of our story.</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/AC2C520AB80043186F71E7A5B38A1606.png" style="" title="" width="79.69%" /></p>

<p>In Maths, we have been continuing with our learning on place value. This week, we have looked at ordering numbers in ascending and descending ordering. As well as this, we have been comparing numbers to 10,000 using less than, greater than and equals to.&nbsp;We have been looking at various reasoning and problem-solving questions, thinking about these questions, preparing something, discussing and sharing with the class.</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/E7F02741B7B444974A4AA0EAA5840F38.png" style="" title="" width="63.05%" /></p>

<p>In Computing, we have been looking at E-safety, where we have looked at how cyberbullying can happen online, identifying things that bullies might say, how to deal with situations online, identifying the best course of action. We then created posters based on cyberbullying.</p>

	<link>https://www.parkwayacademy.co.uk/blog/?pid=85&amp;nid=2&amp;storyid=632</link>	<description><![CDATA[<p>In Science, we looked at how our brain and mouth start the process of digestion. We discussed how the brain sends signals to different parts of our body. We tried an apple to see how our brain sends signals and collected vocabulary based on our senses.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/3FEC142F7430CA0B8264DAB9050B5D2A.png" title="" width="487" />&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/CA2DC37E991ABFFFA1638AD171414C75.png" title="" width="46.65%" /></p>

<p>In Maths, we continued looking at place value where we found 1,10,100,1000 more or less and looked at number lines to 10,00O. We used counters and pictorial representations to support our learning.</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/D00C82EB00B8FF54E3726945BEEAB816.png" style="" title="" width="65.82%" /></p>

<p>In English, we did some role play based on our book Iron Man to help us with gathering some ideas for our sentence stacking. We have looked at various grammar aspects and have used these in our writing.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/7DEF443889457D165F4A99455DE79D97.png" style="" title="" width="64.18%" /></p>

<p>In Geography, we looked at the key features in our local area. We discussed the places that we could visit, where Kings Lynn is, the population and also used grid references to locate some of these places.</p>

<p>In PSHE, we continued with our learning about&nbsp;our rights and responsibilities as well as democracy. We discussed what democracy is and listed examples of how our school promotes democracy.</p>

<p>We have completed a sentence stacking lesson this week focussing on our book of the Iron Man where we have used adjectives, dialogue and repetition to create 3 sentences.</p>

<p>In Maths, we have continued looking at place value, where this week&#39;s focus has been on 1, 10, 100, 1000, more or less than a given number. We have also looked at partitioning four-digit numbers in different ways.</p>

<p>In Science, we looked at our experiment from last week and wrote down the changes that had happened.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In Geography, we looked at grid references.</p>

<p>In PSHE, we had group discussions based on photos and discussed whether they met some of the children&#39;s rights.&nbsp;</p>

<p>We have completed a science experiment looking at how different liquids affect our teeth. We have looked at the importance of attending the dentist and the importance of looking after our teeth.</p>

	<link>https://www.parkwayacademy.co.uk/blog/?pid=85&amp;nid=2&amp;storyid=606</link>	<description><![CDATA[<p>In Maths, we have been looking at representing and partitioning numbers to 1000. This has included identifying hundreds, tens and ones in a range of numbers and explaining how numbers can be broken down in different ways. We have also looked at using number lines and finding different starting and end points to find the difference and work out the intervals. Pupils have practised reading number lines carefully, counting on and back accurately, and using their knowledge of place value to support their calculations.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/EBEEAC86653F76AF8B9E2F169FF5661B.jpeg" title="" width="42.62%" /><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/C54401C463E31936146E896C80182F5B.png" title="" width="44.01%" /></p>

<p>In English, we have begun our sentence stacking lessons based on &#39;The Iron Man&#39; by Ted Hughes. We have used questions, adjectives and verbs to create sentences.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="text-align:center"><img alt="" src="/_site/data/files/images/auto_upload/blog-post/674C1271391231DE41FC7294ED2976B9.png" style="" title="" width="72.76%" /></p>

<p>In PSHE,&nbsp;we discussed &#39;What we should do when another person is speaking? How can you show kind behaviour in class? Why do we take turns in a group?&#39; Children came&nbsp;up with responses of waiting until the person has finished talking before saying something, listening to what the person is saying, showing respect, and so, it is fair.</p>

<p>In Science, we looked at the food groups and why things like protein and carbohydrates are important for our body.</p>

<p>In Spelling with having been practising the &#39;au&#39; and &#39;augh&#39;.</p>

<p>We looked at our zones of regulations, understanding what they are and how to use them. We completed some maths work using concrete resources to represent numbers to 1000. In English, we chose a picture and looked at nouns, verbs and adjectives. We then completed sentences including these nouns, verbs and adjectives. In PSHE, we looked at a class team and how our attitudes and actions can impact on our class team.&nbsp;In Art, we looked at how artists can use tone to show form and drama.</p>
