Happy New Year. Week Ending: 15.1.16

Hello,

In Topic this week we researched facts about the artist Stephen Wiltshire. Then we took our pencil for a walk and created different patterns, lines and shapes with our pencil.


In Maths we have been learning about fractions. We cut up fruit into halves and quarters. We also used the polydron to help us find a half, quarter and a third of a number. 


This week we read the story Storm Whale and The Ugly Ducking. We identified what tense the story was written in and we have also been identifying story language. Have a go at searching for story language when you read this weekend.


In Gym we used the equipment and floor mats to explore different types of rolls. Have a look at our class pictures to see what we got up to.


We became authors in Creative Writing as we created some new adventures for Stick Man. We challenged ourselves to use repeated phrases.


In Science we have been learning about materials. Miss Hoad wanted to order some glass chairs and wooden windows but we didn't think it was a good idea. The glass chairs might smash as glass is fragile and the wooden windows would not let any sun light into the classroom. 


we worked as a team in Music to come up with an ostinato. An ostinato is a repeated pattern.


Congratulations to Isabella who was awarded Swoop this week. Isabella always tries her best and isn't afraid to have a go. 
Well done Joshua for earning Star of the Week  for taking responsibility for his learning.
