First thing this morning we sorted out our pots of equipment.
Then we played a game where we had to answer a maths question in Roman numerals within thirty seconds. If you knew the answer you stood up if the first person to stand up got it wrong the next person to stand up would answer and so on until someone got it right. The winner won a new pencil and rubber.
After that we played the alphabet game which is were in our table groups we have to write a different animal for each letter of the animal without talking or making noises so you could act or point to letter sand it is really hard. The winners were the only team who hadn’t made a single noise which was the crazy baboon gorillas go bananas.
Then we all made postcards which we pretended we were going to send to a friend or member of our family to tell them what we had done this holiday .It was a nice change to what we usually do and We all had something interesting to write about.
Then after break the whole school came together to decide what we wanted to do for our school play we all decided to do a talent show. We can’t wait to start writing the script.
After that we went swimming this was our last week of swimming and we were all being assessed. When that was done we got the rest of the time to play with flippers, floats and balls we were also diving into the deep end. It was really fun and we all loved using the flippers.

As soon as we got into class we had to look back on the many things we have done this term and fill out our term one reflection to go into our PLPs, we have done this term. Then we had to answer the questions on the sheet like what was our favourite thing we did this term, the thing we least liked this term, what we need work o next time and some of the things we learnt. We were all amazed at the amount of things we have done this term.
After that we started maths today my group was learning about Fibonacci’s sequence. Then we had to make a poster about Fibonacci and how he discovered his sequence and also find out about where we could find the Fibonacci sequence in nature.
After break we continued working on our Roman myth Animations and can’t wait to finish them and show all the other groups. Our animation is based on the myth of the Roman gods Mercury and Apollo.

At the very start of school we had our first break of the day.
We started the day with handwriting. Today we focussed on the letter g.
Next we wrote the redrafts of our Billionaire Boy stories (we have finished the book)and some of us finished the redrafts. My character is called Mark Ingsarrong (if you say that fast you get markings are wrong).
After break we had maths. My best topic is maths. My group is called the Multiplying Monkeys. We did multiples for maths. Multiples are numbers that are within a times table, like 10, 20, 30 would all be multiple of 10. I enjoyed it.
After maths we continued with our Roman villas. I had to stay on my own for a while because my group was busy making a card for Mrs Mcdonald because she is leaving the school. It was hard work because you couldn’t use sellotape and you need to do a lot of stuff to make it. I found making the villas fun. We got them finished and now we have to make a brochure to advertise our villas.
At 12.45 we had lunch. We had roast lamb. At lunch time today we said goodbye to Mrs MacDonald as a school and gave her some cards, a present and a bouquet of flowers.
After lunch at 1.30 we continued on our villas.
For the last thing of the day at 2.25 we had music. We sang the songs with two wings and oot bewast the horn o papa.
