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.
We were set the challenge to design a new lining to keep the contents of lunch boxes cooler for longer. We did an experiment, testing how well different materials insulated an ice cube and stopped it from melting. We recently built our own switches to control light bulbs. We have also investigated which metals are the best conductors, making the bulb shine brightest.
