11.2.20 Body Systems

Hi all!

We continue to be very busy in primary 5H. We have been working on our topic, Body Systems, focusing on the digestive and respiratory systems. We used GoNoodle to raise our heart rates and checked our pulses pre, during and post workout to see how our bodies are affected by exercise. We also completed the cracker challenge. Mrs Hunter gave us 3 plain crackers that we had to try and eat in a minute without a drink! This showed us how our saliva glands can not process quickly enough. We all thought this was rather silly!

We have been continuing to read our class novel, The Land of Roar, and get very upset at the end of chapters as we want to know what happens next. We are making predictions about what might happen next and discussing key points of what we have been reading.

We have finished our block of time in maths. We did a lot of work on converting between analogue and digital. We worked on am and pm and using them appropriately.
