Science
We had our first week in the new Science classroom with Ms Zeitlin. We have been learning about magnetism. We liked using magnets to try and get a paper clip out of a glass of water without getting the magnet wet. We were all successful! We learned that the magnets will repel each other if it is a north and north pole or south and south pole together. However the magnets will attract each other if one is north and the other is south.
Maths
We have been learning our 2 and 3 times tables. We have played lots of games to help us learn these tables. We enjoy playing Round the World and the Line Time Championship. At the moment Menahil is the only person to get completely around the world, while Adam Henderson has been very close!
Art
We have enjoyed learning how to draw faces, looking carefully at the shape and position of facial features. We drew our faces in stages, thinking carefully about where to place our facial features.
We have also decorated the nets of cubes to make into our own 2018 cube which tells about our resolutions and the targets we hope to achieve this year.
e.g. Charlotte ~ I would like to improve my basketball skills
Leon and Hirah ~ we would like to improve our cycling and swimming skills
Abbie and Muhammad ~ We would like to practise algorithms for multiplication and division
Menahil, Ruby , Eilidh P and Eilidh M ~ We would like to improve our handwriting skills.
Mrs Wilson would like to improve her ICT skills in 2018
