Coding and Dash Bots!
This week P4 have been learning to code using blocks. They used a website called Code.org that allows users to programme Minecraft and Dance Party. Learners also used an app called Blockly to programme Dash Bots, which everyone really enjoyed. 🙂
Programming Dash Bots also required some maths skills because learners had to think about the distance using cm and turns involving degrees when choosing commands. Sometimes the Bots crashed but learners used growth mind set and problem solving to improve their instructions.

Mummifying Tomatoes!
As part of our Ancient Egypt topic our class did a science experiment to learn more about the mummification process. We can’t wait to see the results of our mummified tomatoes!
Update!
We have now looked at our tomatoes. The skin became wrinkly, quite dull and tough. This was a great way to show how a human’s skin would go during mummification. We also completed our science report.
