Numeracy

In numeracy we have been learning about decimals. We know about tenths and hundredths and have been working out their place value. We now know that decimal numbers are not whole numbers and we have been comparing them to fractions.

Literacy

We have been writing some fantastic expositions. We have been looking at persuasive language and trying to create convincing arguments.

PE

In PE we have been using our throwing and catching skills to play games of bench ball. We have also been doing team games and challenges.

IDL

We have learnt about loads of different inventions. One of the inventions we looked at was the light bulb by Thomas Eddison. We learnt how to create light bulb circuits with switches and buzzers. Next week we are going to create our own lightbulb inventions. We have also been creating our own inventions including bright bags, the maker, the robodog, the gas and litter bot and the get up and go.

Flowers Project

We have been taking part in a national research project based on weather and plant growth. Some of our bulbs have now started to flower and we cant’ wait to bring them home at Easter!
