This is our first blog of 2017, how time flies!

As part of our IDL topic on Carnival of the Animals, we are busy researching information on an animal of our choice then using the information and our ICT skills to make a PowerPoint which we will be sharing with the class. This will be good practice for our presenting skills. We have listened to some great carnival music to get us in the mood for creating our wonderful carnival posters.  In RME we are learning about the 5 Ks of Sikhism.  Ask us to tell you about Kesh, Kanga, Kara, Kirpan and Kachera.  We have finished learning about electricity in Science.  We made circuits to light a bulb and enjoyed experimenting by adding more batteries and bulbs and also added switches.  We have learned about the importance of safety when using electricity and how to save energy too!

“It was fun making circuits and trying to make the bulb brighter,” said Amir.

In French we can translate phrases about the weather.

Moya said, “I liked when we had a competition to see how many weather types we could say in French.”

We are busy learners!
