Science
We are learning about plant reproduction this half term. We have carried out investigations and observations to understand how plants grow. We have created enquiry questions to focus our investigations. We are observing and recording changes overtime, showing what happens to plants when you deprive them of air and water. We have also set up an investigation and will observe how water is transported into plants.
Art - Pointillism
We have been learning about Georges Seurat, a French artist who created the art movement ‘Pointillism’. We have been practicing our pointillism skills using dots of pure colour just like Seurat.
Coding Sphero’s (STEM Rugby)
We had so much coding with Amy! We used the Sphero balls to complete a rugby obstacle course and see who could get to the other side of the pitch and score a goal. We used the app Sphero Edu on the iPads to code the balls and make them drive. We can’t wait to use them again!
Persuasive Language
In Literacy, we are beginning to explore the features of persuasive writing. We have used persuasive language to convince our friends and teachers to swap their items with us. From Willy Wonka’s Golden Tickets to comfy chairs! We had so much fun doing this and we can’t wait to persuade you all to visit Ancient Egypt.
