ENGLISH
In English, this week we have been learning about some interesting poems.
We have learnt today how to use expanded noun phrases. A couple of days ago, we learnt how to act out a poem in groups of 3 and 4s.
When we do our English work, we always do a cold task at the beginning and a hot task at the end. A cold task is when we write what were supposed to and a hot task is when we write it again but use what we've learnt over the week.
In our English work we have been learning about a poem called The Magic Box.

Parliament
What Parliament does?
Parliament has a variety of roles in helping the UK to run efficiently as a country. So what exactly happens in Parliament? Read on to find out more.
Introduction Video:
What happens in Parliament?
The main work of Parliament is to make laws, debate topical issues and look at how our taxes are spent to help run the country. The issues discussed in Parliament affect us all: health, the environment, transport, jobs, schools, crime.
Who gets to work in Parliament?
We live in a democratic country, which means we all have a say in how the country is run. We do this by electing Members of Parliament (MP's) to represent our views in the House of Commons. This part of Parliament has the greatest political power. The second part of Parliament is the House of Lords, whose un elected members complement the work of the House of Commons. The third and final part of Parliame What happens in Parliament?

This part of Parliament has the greatest political power. The second part of Parliament is the House of Lords, whose unelected members complement the work of the House of Commons. The third and final part of Parliament is the Monarch who signs the laws that Parliament votes for.
Where is Parliament?
The Houses of Parliament, also known as the Palace of Westminster, is in the centre of London. As well as the home of the UK Parliament, it is also a royal palace and former residence of great kings. The Palace is one of the most iconic buildings in the world and includes the green-coloured House of Commons Chamber and the red-coloured House of Lords Chamber where political decisions are made to this day. It also includes the famous Clock Tower, popularly known as Big Ben.
To give the people of Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland more say over what happens in their countries, the UK Parliament has devolved (given away) some of its powers to other national and regional bodies. In Scotland, for example, there is the Scottish Parliament which has elected members who make some decisions for Scotland. Wales and Northern Ireland have their own Assemblies and there is also a London Assembly.

Why do we have the House of Lords?
The Lords started off as an advisory council to the king. In 1215, King John was forced to sign the Magna Carta, sharing power with the nobility. Trade became more and more important which lead to the rise of a new merchant class, and by the 14th century Edward III had two groups of advisors divided into chambers, the Lords and the Commons, made up of lesser knights and merchants. This is why we have two houses in Parliament. As time passed, the Commons became increasingly dominant and the King became less powerful.
Who is in the House of Lords?
As society moved on and cultures changed, the question arose, how had these people earned their place? How can they represent the public? In 1958 the Life Peerages Act introduced women into the House and radically changed who was in the Lords. From then on, any man or woman could enter the House based on what they had achieved in their career. The Lords Act of 1999 reduced the number of hereditary members in the House and stopped them passing their seat to their own family.
Now the Lords is made up of people from all walks of life, political peers, cross-bench peers, as well as hereditary peers and bishops. They all use their experience from inside and outside of Parliament to check and challenge the Government.
What does the House of Lords do?
The House of Lords has three main functions. To question and challenge the work of the Government, to work with the House of Commons to shape laws and to investigate issues through committees and debates to help improve the way the country is governed.
The House of Lords is currently the second busiest legislative chamber in the world, right after the House of Commons. Each chamber is laid out in the same way as the Commons, the Government party on the one side, the opposition on the other. Members who don’t belong to any political party are known as cross-benches

Grammar
GRAMMAR
English grammar is the way in which meanings are encoded into wordings in the English language. This includes the structure of words, phrases, clauses, and sentences, right up to the structure of whole texts. There are historical,
Grammatical structures: word, phrase, clause and sentence. Words, Phrases and Clauses. These are the three central grammatical structures which make up all sentences. A phrase consists of one or more words and is a part of a sentence. social, cultural and regional variations of English.
The history of English grammars begins late in the sixteenth century with the Pamphlet for Grammar by William Bullock. In the early works, the structure and rules of English grammar were contrasted with those of Latin. A more modern approach, incorporating phonology, was introduced in the nineteenth century.
An adverbial is a word or phrase that has been used like an adverb to add detail or further information to a verb. (An easy way to remember what an adverb is: it adds to the verb.) Adverbials are used to explain how, where or when something happened; they are like adverbs made up of more than one word.
These basic elements are called morphemes, and the study of how they are combined in words is morphology. The study of how words are organised into phrases, clauses and sentences is usually referred to as syntax. A longer stretch of language is known as discourse, the study of its structure as discourse analysis.
Students write and speak using conventional grammar, usage, sentence structure, punctuation, capitalization, and spelling. Page 1. Standard 3: Students write and speak using conventional grammar, usage, sentence structure, punctuation, capitalization, and spelling. Standards and Components.
Grammar - Parts of Speech - Articles. An article is a kind of adjective which is always used with and gives some information about a noun. There are only two articles a and the, but they are used very often and are important for using English accurately.
English has two articles: the and a/an. The is used to refer to specific or particular nouns; a/an is used to modify non-specific or non-particular nouns. We call the the definite article and a/an the indefinite article.

DECIMAL$
DECIMALS
A decimal number, or just decimal, is any number written in decimal sign , although it is more commonly used to refer to numbers that have a fractional part separated from the tenths part with a decimal separator (e.g. 11.25).
 |
| IT IS A VERY EASY THING TO LEARN! |
ADDING DECIMALS
To add decimals, follow these steps:
- Write down the numbers, one under the other, with the decimal points lined up.
- Put in zeros so the numbers have the same length (see below for why that is OK
- Then add using column addition, remembering to put the decimal point in the answer.
E.G
4.52
+
8.58
SUBTRACTING DECIMALS
To subtract decimals, follow these steps:
- Write down the two numbers, one under the other, with the decimal points lined up.
- Add zeros so the numbers have the same length.
- Then subtract normally, remembering to put the decimal point in the answer.
E.G
1.000
-
0.056
0.944
httpd://www. maths is fun.com/subtracting-decimals.html
MULTIPLYING DECIMALS
Just follow these steps: Multiply normally, ignoring the decimal points. Then put the decimal point in the answer - it will have as many decimal places as the two original numbers combined.

The battle was between King Richard III and Henry Tudor. They were
represented by roses; Richard was the white rose and Henry was the
red rose. Richard was the house of York and Henry was the house of
Lancaster. Richard had 10,000 men and Henry had 1500 French
soldiers along with 500 followers. The battle started in 1485 and
ended with Richard dying by one of Henry's soldiers. Henry
became the new king of England. He changed his name from Henry
Tudor to King Henry 7.
