We got to make our own 3D shapes out of paper. I tried to make a hexagonal prism. – Ben

Literacy:

In reading we have been reading our own personal reading books. We read by ourselves for 30 minutes; I am reading a non-fiction text about broomsticks and balloons. – Anthony

We have been learning all about nouns. We have learned about pronouns, proper nouns and everyday common nouns. We have completed textbook work where we had to identify and use them in a sentence. – Josh

During RME lessons we have been making powerpoints about important Christian figures. – India

In topic we have been learning more about space and some of us were using the internet to research hidden planets in the solar system. – Brooke

In topic we were making space helmets. Firstly we sketched the design in our IDL jotters and wrote a list of equipment/resoucres and materials needed. Secondly, we made our designs come to life using the materials we had written down. My helmet was made out of an Easter egg box. – Jay

P.E.:

In P.E. we have taken part in Olympic game sports. We did shotput, long jump and javelin. My favourite was javelin. – Jackson
