This week we have had great fun listening to maths stories. We listened to ‘Jack the Builder’. It was all about 3d shapes. We worked in groups to create our own models with 3d shapes and explored their properties. We made up an addition sum to work out ‘How Many Feet in the Bed?’ after listening to the story by Diane Johnston Hamm.
In art, we looked at the works of Piet Mondrian and Frank Stella. They used line and shape in their artwork. It inspired us to try our own works of art.
We were lucky to have Mr Pennykid come in to school to tell us all about how he uses maths in his job. We also loved listening to the animal stories too!
