In 5/6 Jackson during Writing, we have had a learning focus of Poetry. We are learning about Haiku poems. Haiku poems come from Japan. To write a Haiku successfully we have been practising breaking words into syllables. The structure of a Haiku consists of three lines. The first line has 5 syllables, the second line 7 syllables and the third line 5 syllables. Below are some pictures of the Haiku poems we have created.

In Mathematics we have been exploring multiplicative thinking. We have completed a range of problem-solving activities working alongside other 5/6 classes. We have used different materials to create arrays. We then partition the number as many different ways as we can. Below are some examples of our learning.
