This week we came back from our September weekend and started our hard work again.
We all got our new reading books. One group have started Jammy Dodgers on the run which is set in Victorian Times. Another group are reading a scary book called, Young Ware Wolf. So far, we are liking our books.
In Science, we have started an experiment to do with our topic Space. We are trying to find out if changing the surface when dropping a fake meteorite will affect the surface or affect the fake meteorite. We are using a rock from outside as a fake meteorite. The results so far are:
Grass: Affect on meteorite was slight bounce
Affect on surface was slight noise
Tyre: Affect on meteorite was a large bounce
Affect on surface was some little black tyre bounced up
During maths, we have been looking at triangles are we are all very good at it. We learned about the different types of triangles, the properties of each triangle and that if you add up all the angles in a triangle it equals 180 degrees.
Here’s a link to a song to help you learn about triangles: https://youtu.be/JQUTVgT9RXY

Lots of exciting work going on in P7 last week. I love doing triangles in maths. It’s magic, no matter what triangle you draw, the three angles always add up to 180 degrees. Try it and see for yourselves.
