Arlo – We were challenged to make the tallest tower with spaghetti and marshmallows. It was hard.

Sarah S – The marshmallow had to be at the very top of our tower. It was interesting to find out what it would do.

Daisy – It was very tricky because it was hard to balance the spaghetti and put the heavy marshmallow on top.

Olivia – It was very hard but my group managed to do it. When we got it standing it sometimes fell but then we got it to stand by itself again.

Millie – My group and I worked together to make our building of spaghetti and marshmallows. We managed to get it to stand by itself eventually.

Vikingar

Jamie – I was dressed up as a Viking farmer.

Sophia – It was very fun and I was a Viking farmer’s wife. I married Jamie.

Sophia – To get married, you had to hold an oath ring and you would only be married for a year and a day. Then you get married a second time and you are married for life.

Blair – I dressed up as a woodsmith. We used wood to make Viking longships and longhouses.

Sienna – It was fun dressing up!

Oli – I dressed up as a trader’s wife. Traders are very rich! It was really fun and we got to learn new things about Vikings.

Finlay – To get divorced, we had to say “I divorce you, I divorce you, I divorce you”. It was fun!

Fun, Literacy

Capital letters and Full Stops

Our grammar lesson was a little different today. We went on a tour of the class for our grammar questions today. Mrs Martin put out 28 questions around the room. She challenged us to correct as many sentences as we could, putting in capital letters and full stops.

Cara- It was fun!

Blair – It was fantastic!

Jessica – It was really fun because it was different.
