4th and 5th October
We have had our harvest festival today. Our part of the service (with the other Year 6 class) was about our responsibility for caring for our world - which made us think about avoiding waste, saving energy, the ozone layer and the importance of the rainforests. The message was that we all need to "do our bit".
In maths we have done some more work on relating fractions, decimals and percentages and in English we have written a poem using the structure of a Grace Nichols poem.
We had our French, handwriting and YMCA sessions yesterday and this afternoon we did some practical work in science - exploring the effect on the length of an elastic band of adding weights to a bag it is supporting. We measured and recorded the amount of "stretch" and drew graphs to show our results clearly.
