Class 13 – Rock Experiment 🪨
In expedition, we have been carrying out a experiment to test seven different rocks in a number of different scenarios; chalk, sandstone, limestone, marble, slate, granite and basalt. We had to test the the hardness, durability, permeability and resistance to acid for each of the rocks and say whether or not they were suitable for certain scenarios before giving them a rating out of 5.
Class 13 – Triangles 🔺
In maths this week, we have been looking at shape and geometry, more specifically triangles. We learnt that different triangles have different properties and began to sort them based on their properties. We then used art straws to create the different triangles; right-angled, equilateral, scalene and isosceles.
National Skipping Week
This week is National Skipping week and as a school we will be taking part to see how many jumps we can do. Each day, the children will get the opportunity to take part and count how many jumps they can do and we will create a school total each day. Watch this video to find out more.
Want to take part at home?
School council will be getting involved to see who can skip or jump in the most unusual places. All you need to do to get involved is take a picture or video of you jumping or skipping somewhere unusual and send it into school. The deadline for entries is Tuesday 2nd May. Winners will be announced on Friday 5th May.
Happy skipping!
Class 13 – Locating Rivers 💧
In our lesson this afternoon, we have been locating some of the major rivers across the United Kingdom. We used maps on the iPads to locate them before adding and labelling them to our own blank maps.
Class 13 – Locating Mountains 🗻🏔⛰
We have been using our map skills to locate some of the largest mountains and mountain ranges across the world. We used an atlas to look for some of the largest mountains on each continent and then labelled them on a world map and wrote down each of their heights.
