In p.e we were doing rounders on the red ash pitch and we had a batter, bowler,backstop and fielders.The fielders were to defend the batters and backstop was in there team.

In math’s we have been learning about division and fact families we know that if you know your times tables you will know your division and if you know your division you will know your fact families.

example 6 x 4=24 and 4 x 6 = 24 and  24 dv by 6 = 4 and 24 dv 4 = 6.

Next we had big reading. We were studying the book Holes. We learned that there are different parts of the book, And in our jotters we did a mind map about the mane parts in the book there is the plot, characters , distant past , recent past , present.

Example:

Plot =  Stanley dug his first hole.

Characters = Zero, armpit , squid ,zigzag ,x-ray , the caveman ,magnet.

Distant past = Elya took the pig up the mountain.

Recent past= Stanley went  to Camp Green lake because he was accused of steeling the shoes.

Present=  He is still digging the holes.

IDL – Rainforest Animal

As part of your rainforest topic with Miss Brittain, choose an animal which lives in the rainforest to find out about.  Find out about:

• Its name, including its scientific name if possible
• Which type of rainforest climate in lives in (Tropical or temperate)
• Which layer of the rainforest is its habitat.
• What it eats
• How it lives – a den, a burrow etc.
• What other animals prey on it, if any.
• Life expectancy
• Its risk of endangerment

You can again, present this information in a format of your choice, as you did with last week’s rainforest layers homework, including as a piece of colourful artwork with facts.  Have fun!
