This week we wrote stories as one of the animals we met last week at the Deer Centre. We could choose to write our stories about anything but in lots of them the animals escaped from their enclosures and went on adventures! We had to include openers, connectives and descriptive language.

In Science, we learnt about magnetism. We did an investigation to see which materials were magnetic and which were not. We found out that all magnetic materials are metal but not all metals are magnetic! We then designed and created a game using magnets. They were either based on a maze or a hook-a-duck idea. It was lots of fun and we are hoping to share them with everyone next week.

In Maths, we learnt how to find the area of a shape by counting up the number of square units inside. We worked out that we could count in groups like arrays so Miss Amy challenged us to work out the area of squares and rectangles just by know the length of the sides. We were brilliant at it! Today we reviewed number sequences to 1000 or 10,000.

In Health and Wellbeing, we learnt about how we are all unique. We made posters or filled in a worksheet about what was unique about us.

In PE, we did the hurdles and practised the Trim Trail Challenge for Sports Day but without the water!
