The children had great fun yesterday, creating Venn diagrams to identify multiples and common multiples of different numbers.

As part of friendship day we have been celebrating acts of kindness. The children made a paperchain and on each link, one of the children has written about how somebody has been kind to them in school recently.
In music, the children have been listening to The Firebird by Igor Stravinsky.
They identified the music's main motif and, working together using their listening, playing and counting skills, they managed to play it as a whole-class ensemble. Here is a sound recording of them playing it (which can be downloaded) and a link to the full orchestral performance: https://drive.google.com/file/d/19stiUZbk90XCoy4MNxRyScVMzzUecuDG/view?usp=sharing https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p02b5dyd Have a play on these lovely Turtle Crossing games that some of the children have made.
Some lovely retellings of Theseus and the Minotaur have been handed in on Purple Mash. Well done!
We had a fantastic time on world book day. We shared stories, read in snuggly dens, created our own story book creatures and played book-based games. This was fun to make Spirographs on our own and it was so hard. We used pen blocks - it was our first time and it was fun. There was was a lot of coding. Me and Arlie (my partner) worked together to make lots of shapes like this on Scratch 2. Me and Arlie were the first to make it rainbow.
Arlie and Syd This week in Y4/5 we have been learning about nets and 3D shapes. We found out what faces, edges and vertices are. We worked on the laptops on 'Geometric solids' to find out the number of all these properties on different types of shapes. We created nets of 3D shapes with polydron and counted their faces, vertices and edges.
This week, The Investigators have used art rock to form stone tablets. On these they have created cave paintings inspired by prehistoric art. They used oil pastels to create their images.
