Language: We started our new class readers this week.
Foxes: Started The Shrimp and looked at the front of the book and the blurb to get some clues.
BFG: were reading an extract from Hill of the Red Fox and answered some questions.
Matildas: Started reading Friend or Foe and were finding information by looking at the title and the picture.
Maths:
Octagons: the octagons have been learning about tenths, thirds and fifths in fractions.
Rectangles: the rectangles have been learning about data handling and tally marks. They learnt by going around classes doing surveys.
Circles: the circles have been learning about volume and capacity. We’ve learned by doing activities outside the classroom, playing games on the board and doing textbook pages.
Science: In science we have been learning about the human body and did an experiment to make working lungs out: bottles, straws, balloons and bluetac. And when you put them altogether you get a lung but the one we did it did not work.
