We started to work on our engineering box. We disassembled the tangle free turbine head by following instructions. We had to pry apart sections and use different screwdrivers to take the whole turbine head apart. At the end we had to reassemble to all by ourselves. It was great and gave us a great experience of what engineers do. We were very interested to learn how the turbine head actually worked.

Euler have been looking at converting measurements and using their knowledge of fractions, decimals and percentages to help them. It’s tricky but we are starting to get the hang of it. We have been doing lots of Halloween activities in maths, we were plotting co-ordinates and trying to solve a spooky mystery! It was great fun!

In Social Studies we were discussing who was involved in WWII. We researched the countries and leaders that were involved and looked at who the axis and allies were. Adolf Hitler was the leader of Germany and they were the axis.

On Wednesday we did our last Joe Wicks School Workout and it was fun! We have been gaining more stamina throughout the weeks as we are getting better at the HITS.

In writing we finished writing our horror stories. We were upleveling them and worked with our peers to peer assess pieces of writing.

Today Mrs Lamont showed us something new on our Google Classroom. It was really interesting and fun! We used this for our literacy work with Think Me Back and we got to work in pairs.

We had a class picture taken this week 🙂
