In Computing we have been learning how to shorten and simplify an algorithm by using a repeat or loop command. Our focus for Topic is World War 2. We have been learning how children of our age would have been affected by the war and some of our class have brought some memorabilia in from that time. We are all very interested in the differences between our lives. ### World War 2 [![](https://files.schudio.com/stakesby-community-primary-school-2/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/12365/P5120411.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/stakesby-community-primary-school-2/images/gallery/12365/P5120411.JPG) As the weather has been so warm, we had circle time outside on Thursday! It made a lovely change and we were able to have an al fresco discussion!
