This week has been very eventful, throughout the week we have had a maths focus and have been demonstrating our understanding of number in many different ways. We also took our maths outside and created balanced equations using sticks, leaves,. Stones and even tennis balls to create challenges for our friends to answer.

We found out what happened to Medusa through the learning of the story, we then recreated the story using drama. This was great fun and a brilliant way to ensure we all knew the story well.

We reflected on our Robinson Crusoe work from last year and learnt ways of turning salt water into drinking water by boiling salt water then catching the steam in a beaker. What we didn’t expect to find was all the salt left behind in the pan after the water had been evaporated.

Christmas came early this week as we planned and created our designs for Christmas cards, wrapping paper and gifts. We have all brought our work home to share with you and hopefully you will choose something that could be used as gifts. We do have to bring in the slip next week if we do want to order any items.
