This week we started a new topic on fight, looking at the question how is flight possible. We shared what we already know and came up with some really good areas to research further. We enjoyed creating and testing the paper aeroplanes we had designed to investigate aerodynamics and streamlining. We also investigated how we could make a paper spinner fly better and go further looking at height, weight and force.

In P.E we enjoyed using the skills we have been developing in small games of hockey, where we focused on passing, marking and scoring.

In Literacy we explored adjectives by creating an adjective A – Z. We looked at adjectives for describing size, qualities, colour and mood and identified different parts of speech in sentences and passages. In reading we have been continuing to look at finding evidence in a text to explain and support our answers and using key words within questions to skim and scan.

In Health and Well-being we have been looking at healthy eating and different factors that influence food practices and preferences such as culture and religion

In Maths we have been learning about the 24 hour clock and had fun collecting clues and solving our 24 hour time challenge where we had to convert times in a range of different formats to 24 hour times to solve the puzzle.
