Measuring angles

When investigating shapes this week Primary 2C became curious about where the vertices meet. After some investigating we discovered that squares and rectangles look the same at the corners. We learned that these shapes have right angles. Looking around our classroom we found lots of right angles!
We even played a fun game where we had to compete against each other to turn the correct way under the teachers direction using the language right, left and right angle. We are having a semi final and final next week in our class. We are wondering where else we might use angles?

Welcome to Potions Class!

This week inspired by Hallowe’en and our book room on the Broom, we decided to create some witches potions.

First we had to decide what we wanted our potion to do, there were lots of varying requests. Next we went out sourcing some ingredients for our potions. Would you believe that in our playground we found eyes of dragons, ears of foxes and even frog poo!

When it was time to make the potions we carefully shared out ingredients, considering what magic each element would add to our spell and lastly we wrote about our experiences in our writing jotter.

Thank you to Miss Daily and Jenna for helping us with our potions this week. I hope everyone survived and nobody was put under the ‘Buy me a Fluffy Puppy’ potion!
