We were introduced to a design brief and ours was to design a new sweet or chocolate and it’s wrapper. we heard part of a Roald Dahl story first- ” Wonderful Mr. Willy Wonka.”
We were really excited about getting our ideas onto paper. Then we discussed it and made improvements on our design before drawing our neat copy.
Keep an eye out for what we do with our designs next week!
We celebrated Roald Dahl today by entering Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory to investigate the sweets. We needed to use our senses to describe each sweet. The last sense we used was taste. Ask us what we discovered!
During the first few weeks of school we spent time learning to work as a team. One of our activities involved hula hoops. We had to get the hoop around our group without letting go of hands. Mrs Dundas was very impressed with us!
Today we used the website www.natgeokids.com to find out cool facts about bugs. Thomas and Struan found a new bug. It is a giraffe weevil. Maybe you could read these bug facts at home.
In Reading we read all about ants and discovered more interesting facts. Mrs. Thomson was impressed that we remembered lots of facts that we had read.
Enjoy finding out about bugs.
Well done everyone who has been looking in their gardens and telling us what bugs they have found.
Well done P2/3 for earning this award. Keep up the good work!
P3 have been using their prior learning about food chains to think about the food chain of a fox. Last year we learned about food chains of birds so, we used this knowledge to help us to work out what the food chain of a fox might look like. We remembered that everything in a food chain gets energy from the Sun.
We were looking at the strategy Draw a picture in Problem Solving. We know it is very important to draw clear pictures in Maths and here is a very good example. We also needed to work out our answers in number sums too to make the task more challenging.
Everybody worked well with their partner and there was lots of good discussion as we worked.
In our stories we are looking at the main character. The WHO in this story is a bear.
After walking along our new school path we drew a bird’s eye view of it. We were building on our 2D mapping skills from last year.
We have been sharing what makes us special in our new class.
