This week we have been continuing with our descriptive writing, revising place value and addition and some of us attended an online meeting about Dalguise.
For PE we have been focusing on hockey this term and enjoyed a few games in the MUGA.
We have been learning about forces and were inspired by P7A’s zip lines so thought we would have a go ourselves. After the challenge , we discussed what the children found most difficult. Some said sharing the resources, others said adapting their designs and plans if they didn’t work. We saw some great team work and innovative ideas. Well done everyone!
We were excited to learn that we will be taking part in a global challenge at part of COP26 and have been partnered up with a school in Nepal. The children had to take part in a number of activities to help introduce ourselves to the pupils in Nepal. One of our tasks was to take photos of different parts of the school. Have a look at some of the fantastic photos taken by the children below.

This week I have learned about different angles. This week I found it hard because when we were making zip lines we split water all over are one so we basically had to start again but we managed to clean it up and fix what was wet. I think this week I have used have a go from skippers tool kit because when I was finding it hard in maths I ask the teacher and we figured it out together.

The most important thing I learned is math angles they are important to learn because you might be working on something and you would need the angels to find out which one it is. The most difficult thing was the zip line because it was hard to tie string and get it to work but then me and Aidan got it.everyone was helping each other with zip lines some people helped with giving items..when me and Aidan were building the zip line it didn’t work but we keep try and looking on the bright side of life and we got it working.
I have been off all week but on Friday I learnt about angles.When Eliana spilt the water by accident liberty helped clean up.I used skippers toolkit box when I came back on Friday because i used the tool have a go.
