We measureed our trail of books on World Book Day and found out we were reading 9 Metres 15 centimetres of reading books today !  We had a superb inroduction to our new topic of Length and Perimeter. To help our understanding of Perimeter each group worked together to measure the Perimeter of our playground.   We worked hard together as a team to measure the playground using lots of co-operation and group discussion to work together.
We had a great time, solving the problem of how to order 43 Chicken Nuggets. We tries every combination usin 20, 9 and 6. We love fun mathematics problem solving and reasoning.
We definitely used both concentration gem and Co-operation gem to help us solve our mathematics problem solving today.
We used our electric circuit this week to test various materials to decide if they were conductors of electricity or insulators.We then went on to test lots of different circuits. Firstly we predicted which ones would light the bulb up then we tested them out.  We have used the Concentration Gem to work carefully with our electric circuit. We alo used the Co-operation Gem to work together to test out our ideas together.
We have all produced a great set of instructions to tell everyone how to survive an earthquake.29/1/2023 We have written excellent instructions all about How To Survive An Earthquake. We included all the elements instructions need includin a brilliant title, a list of equipment, time connectives, imperative verbs, technical words, fronted adverbials, clear decription and well labelled diagrams. Brilliant writing everyone !
In science we have been learning all about electricity and ahve made a circuit set up in series for ourselves. We then worked hard and were all quite elated when we worked out how to change it into a parallel electric circuuit. Well done everyone ! We used all these learning gems to help us succeed with our learning.
 We are learning how to do long multiplication using brackets to expand the method and ensure we use the correct place value each time We love the method and find using the brackets helps us show our working out and helps us understand the calculation thoroughly. We are loving math and having lots of fun learning new methods !
We have used the Concentration and Perseverance Learning Gem appraoches to help us with this mathematical challenges thsi week.
