Take a look at what we have been up to this half term. 

 

SCIENCE - Observing over time. 

We carried out an experiment to see what happens to the temperature of water if left over time.  We measured the temperature of warm water and cold water every 5 minutes to see what would happen.  We had to use equipment to take accurate measurements and record timings.

ENGLISH AND PE - circus skills

Our new book in English is all about children visiting a circus.  Our classroom was set up with a circus theme and, in our first PE lesson, we practised a range of different circus skills.  We balanced, juggled, spun plates and used hula hoops.  We had a great time.
