Uncategorized, , , , , ,

Good afternoon, this week we were leaning volume. We calculated the volume using cubic centimetres. We checked using cubes and some of us used the formula V = l x b x h.

On Tuesday we did a litter pick around some of Sorn. We tidied up behind the village hall and then down towards the entrance to the village. We plan to continue this next week with the whole school. We took part in a live lesson and learned how to write a poem about the environment and how to look after it. Have a look at some of our poems.

AJ Recycling is the main thing
HQ The environment
JE clean
JF Please keep it clean
KJ Keeping the outdoors clean

We started learning about area this week. By counting the squares or multiplying the length and breadth, we can find the area.

In science, we have been learning about the water cycle and how to filter water. We experimented with different materials to find which cleaned the water best.

  

Then we explored climate change and the effect that the rising temperatures have on our planet. We made chains to show the many effects that climate change is having.

We’ve been learning about breaking up numbers in math. Next week we are looking at written method. We made bar graphs on excel and after conducting a traffic survey in Sorn.

We are working on our clean green award and we did a zoom call. The activities were measuring temperature of water where one was in a bag and one was not. We made a spider web while thinking about food chains. we passed string to each other to show how animal and plants were connected.
