Hello P6P,

We have made it to the end of another busy week and only one more week to go before the end of term 1! Well done to everyone who achieved an award this week or gained lots of personal points – keep up the good work!

This week in literacy we have been writing fairy tale stories and will be sharing some of our great work with the rest of the class. We have also been working hard on our handwriting this week and wrote a winter poem in our best handwriting.

In maths we have been focusing on volume as part of our measurement topic. We were using the dines materials to create cubes and cuboids with particular volumes and were able to challenge our peers.

We have also been investigating the effects of air resistance this week and we worked in teams to complete the parachute challenge. When we had completed creating our parachutes we tested them by dropping them over the balcony to see which parachutes landed safely.

HOME CHALLENGE 05/10/20

We have also been working on our times tables during maths time. Some of us were finding some of the stations of the seven times table quite tricky. Please practice your seven times table, remembering all of the stations.

7 x 0 = 0

7 x 1 = 7

7 x 2 = 14

7 x 3 = 21

7 x 4 = 28

7 x 5 = 35

7 x 6 = 42

7 x 7 = 49

7 x 8 = 56

7 x 9 = 63

7 x 10 = 70
