Hello everyone,<\/p>\n
a quick update on what P4M have been up to.<\/p>\n
We have been making some posters for our p2-4 show.\u00a0 We recreated some of the advertising posters for the Sound of Music that were created when the film came out.\u00a0 Some of us also created a poster of our favourite things to go with the song! \u00a0We have been working hard on our songs for the show and learning songs from the film, The Sound of Music.<\/p>\n
In numeracy we have been learning our 2, 5, 10, 3, 4, and 8 times tables.\u00a0 We are going to be looking at 6, 7 and 9 over the coming weeks and making links between them. \u00a0\u00a0In number talks we have been working on using and making landmark, friendly numbers to help us with addition.\u00a0 #numberacy<\/p>\n
In PE we played a \u2018floor is lava\u2019 game and we had to use equipment to avoid touching the floor.\u00a0\u00a0 If you touched the floor you had to start again, ensuring that you worked as a team.\u00a0 We have teams we are working in and we earn points each week for our team.\u00a0 At the end of the 6 weeks, Mrs Howard will be giving us a prize! One of the prizes could be 10 minutes extra brake or choosing time! We really enjoyed this and it really made us apply some of our skills for life such as creativity, problem solving teamwork.\u00a0 Within our teams, we have different jobs.\u00a0 For example, team leader, equipment manager, assesser and reporters.\u00a0 The reporters are like spies looking out for people working hard in our teams!<\/p>\n
In literacy, we have been working hard on our spelling including common words that we use regularly. \u00a0In writing, we have been writing some reports on scientists.\u00a0 You would need this for the future, for example, if you saw someone doing something that they were not supposed to be doing, you might have to write a report to the police.<\/p>\n
In STEM, through our topic, we conducted the play-dough experiment.\u00a0 We used play-dough to explore push, pull and gravitational forces. We also designed and made our own parachutes to test air resistance. \u00a0\u00a0We have been looking at magnets and found out and what materials are magnetic.\u00a0 We found out that magnets are made of metal.<\/p>\n
P4M have also welcomed a new person to our class and we are enjoying getting to know them =]<\/p>\n
Thank you for reading,<\/p>\n
