In Maths we have started looking at the different types of bills and how they are calculated. We have been using our addition and multiplication skills to calculate the cost of different products and services that make up different types of bills. In addition to this we have been practicing our times tables by playing the new “Race Track” multiplication game. We were learning about durations in time in maths and we were also working on the 24 hour clock. We found it useful to relate our work on time to every day contexts.
We have also started work on our new topic Mary Queen of Scots and have been recording information regarding what we already know about her life and work, what other information we would like to find out and the different ways we would like to learn about her. We then looked at the major events in her life and completed a time-line to cover this historical period.
Pupils had a fantastic last week at rugby, we played various games and they had mini tag rugby matches. It was also exciting walking there in the snow.
In French we have been revising our greetings and playing number games in French.
We also enjoyed watching BBC News Round this week and learning all about the new rocket that was launched into space carrying Elon Musk’s car.
Have a super February break!
