World Book Day 2020
Space Workshop
During the workshop, we learnt about rockets. We watched a rocket launch and then made our own rockets that we later tested.
Earth and Space Art Work
We studied the work of the American artist Peter Thorpe. He uses an abstract background and a space themed foreground. We painted our own pictures based on Peter Thorpe's work.
Here are our space themed paintings

Reading Buddies
In science, we have been investigating how wire length affects the brightness of a bulb.
Netball Taster Session
We were lucky enough to have a coach from Royals Netball club visit us. We enjoyed developing our netball skills.
Jigsaw group challenge
We had to build the tallest tower possible, in 5 minutes, out of just newspaper and sellotape. We did not get very tall towers.
Next, we took on roles (Materials manager, Time keeper and Designer) and had another 5 minutes to build a tower. This time, it was much more successful as we worked as a team and all took our roles seriously!
English
We have been learning our model text — The Gorgon Medusa. We use actions and a text map to help us. Soon, we will be writing our own non-chronological reports based on the model.
Maths
We have been using concrete manipulatives to support us with our learning of addition and subtraction.
