Making Shapes

 Today we had an awesome time in Maths exploring making different rectilinear shapes with a set number of squares. 


Mrs Hurst increased the number of squares we could have each time and we made some really interesting shapes. Some of us even managed to make some letters of the alphabet! 

We challenged ourselves and didn't realise that we were learning as Tomasz explained. "This is SO much fun!"





These are some of the photos from our first challenge but we managed to create a lot more interesting shapes with a greater number of squares.

NSPCC Childhood Day

  Yesterday, we completed our mile for the NSPCC Childhood Day. It was rather hot!  This was us at the start. We took our water bottles and walked around the course, that Mr T had set up for us and chatted as we went. We had to complete the course four times to ensure we walked the total distance of one mile.  And that is us at the end of the mile as we were heading back to the classroom.

Cultural Day

  Apologies for the late upload of this one, it got lost in the last day of term.  We had a lovely day learning about Germany.  We made some flags, learned about what school is like in Germany and how to say numbers 1-10 in German.  Filip did some amazing research about German flags and brought it in to show us.  Unfortunately the photographs are not uploading correctly at the moment.
