10th November
Today we started off with a lively English lesson on instruction writing in which we read he instructions for a playground game (called Crows and Cranes), testing them out by seeing if different groups of readers interpreted them in the same way. It was a really good game and we came up with some super ideas about how the instructions would be improved.
In maths we began some work on perimeter, calculating the perimeters of squares and rectangles and then moving on to thinking about formulae for calculating the perimeters of regular polygons.
This afternoon we started our new science topic on Healthy Living by thinking about food and a healthy diet. This fits in well with the Healthy Schools scheme which is running in school at the moment. We ended the day by learning how to use a new database programme, searching databases and sorting information in the files.
