This week has been a short week with the February break but we have been using it creatively.

We have been exploring metallic paints and pens to make Tutankhamen’s mask and creating our addition learning wall for our class.

What do you think??

This week we have been very busy.

• We have been learning how to summarise our reading books and re-arrange key parts of the story to make sure it makes sense
• We have been identifying what makes a good word problem and using our Ancient Egypt Topic to create problems of our own
• We have been having great fun dressing up Red to raise money for the British Heart Foundation

We have been learning:

• How to record our sums as chimney sums
• We created our maths wall to help us remember our addition strategies
• The process of mummification
• Why the heart was so special to Ancient Egyptians and how they used Canopic jars
• We watched a film about TutanKhamun’s tomb
• We learned how to design our own Kippah’s for Shabbat

Attached is our newsletter for this term.

We have been busy learning about Ancient Egypt. We have created our own pyramids using nets, straws and also lego bricks.

We have also been learning how to be ready for emergencies by learning how to help a conscious or unconscious casualty. We can tell you what signs to look for and how to put someone into the recovery position.

We are also using ICT to learn our 3D objects and 2D shapes. We can tell you about pyramids and also pentagons, hexagons and octagons.
