This week, we have been working really hard on maths. We have loved learning about decimals and the different ways we can represent and read decimals. It hasn’t always been easy, but we are now able to read decimals with thousandths. Our vocabulary is becoming really strong and we are confident explaining.
In Writing, we have been completing a scientific report about the experiment we participated in, during Expedition. This has been something that has really challenged our thinking, which was to be like scientists.
During Expedition, we completed our experiment for the European Space Agency (ESA). They have loved designing their rockets and seeing if their prediction was correct. We thought that the bigger the surface area on a parachute, the slower it would fall. This did not come true and we need to figure out why our prediction was not accurate.
During expedition, we started our 3rd Case Study, which is art. We loved being able to critique the art work in the fantastic book Where Once we Stood. We then even had a go at trying our own version of the images. We have also reflected on the mural that we are creating and have thought about how we can make this better. We have discussed it and then put our ideas into action.
This week has been an odd week, as it has had one day less. We are keen to have an improved one next week. Our HoWL average for the week was 2.8! We really need to ensure that we are working hard all of the time.
