Hello P6P,
I can’t believe it is December already with only two weeks to go before the Christmas holidays!
On Monday some of us came to school wearing tartan to celebrate St. Andrews Day. In class we looked at who St. Andrew was and why we celebrate St. Andrews Day on the 30th of November each year. We also explored famous Scottish inventors and inventions and created posters and PowerPoint presentations to share our research.
In maths we have been looking at 3D shape nets. We have been building nets, designing nets and drawing them on our own. We also played a nets matching game that everyone did really well in. We also started looking at tiling with shape and will continue with this next week.
We have also been busy with our topic, learning more about Queen Victoria. We presented our findings from our research activity and then moved onto some art work. We have been creating portraits of Queen Victoria using a range of materials to create collages. They are looking great and I can’t wait to see them all when they are finished!
HOME CHALLENGE 07/12/20
I would like you to revise some of the shape work we have been doing in class.
- Can you draw a range of 3D shapes, labelling all of their properties?
- Can you create nets for some of the 3D shapes we have been learning about?
- Can you create a tiling pattern?
- Have a go at the ‘Shapes in Space’ game. Type Topmarks into google and click on the first link that it shows up. Then, in the search bar on Topmarks search for Shapes in Space. How many points can you get? Can you beat your score?
Have a lovely weekend,
Miss McLeish 🙂
