Today I had a great day. First of all we had my favourite lesson, Maths. In it we did the bar method of dividing. So you have three bars, and in the top you have the number you are dividing by, in this case, 20. Then in the bar below it you divide it into the sections you are dividing the big number by which is 2 in this case and in the 2 or more sections you write that dividing number as a denominator of a fraction. This one would be ½. Finally, in the bottom bar, split it into the same sections as the middle bar but then divide the big number/20 by 2 which is 5, write them in the divided sections and then count up how many you need. That might no make sense so here is a picture of what I'm trying to say. I find it hard to explain.

Then we had Literacy. But not any sort of dull writing lesson but Oh no! We had a news report about evacuees! First of all we shot the outside interviews. This took along time because Zac kept forgetting his lines. We had take up to 75 scenes to get just 2 interviews done! When we finished we had to take 4 scenes inside. An introduction,  some information and 2 interviews. Yet we managed to do that quicker instead of the two outdoor interviews! Then later we are going to put them all in + edit them and then we'll have a news report. The problem is that the video, like the Newsround reports, has to be 1-2 minutes long.  I think there is a problem with our name, because its called THE REAL NEWSROUND and I think it could be a bit insulting to the BBC. Although I didn't want that name, I still got outvoted. But I did enjoy filming.

After lunch I had Topic which is about WW2. We learnt about how in World War 2 women got freedom. We had to make posters that should convince women to help in the war. The problem was that they lied about some bits. For example they didn't say they would see their lovely baby. I did a very could poster with neat handwriting. Finally we had SPaG. In SPaG we found long words and asked people what they mean and how to spell it. Sadly it wasn't the word Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious because that is hard to spell ad the meaning... well I'm not sure there is one. I really would like the word Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious to be in it. Finally, when school finished, I had some exercise at the park. First of all I played football with my friends Tyler, Jake and Luca. I didn't get many goals scored but I did score 8. Then I pushed some little kids on the swing and they really enjoyed it. I did as well. Finally, I played cricket and I managed to beat my friend 3-2. Then I went home and thought about everything that happened today. Bye for now!
