WB: 04.04.2022 - Investigating gears, computing day and end of term ice lollies in the sun!

We were looking at mechanical advantage in Science. We investigated the way gears give us a mechanical advantage. We explored how to use SAM's Labs in computing. We made WWII like telegraph machines We used morse code to send messages. We use them to create guitars! To celebrate the end of term 4... ... we enjoyed lollies in the sunshine.

WB: 14.03.3033 - A friction Science experiment

We were investigating which shoes had the most fiction. We experimented with different shoes to test their grip We used newton meters to measure the force.

W/B: 07.03.2022 - Multiplication, Sewing in DT and Bristol in the Blitz

In English, we used role paly to explore the feelings and actions of the characters. We have been learning the grid method to solve 2-digit by 2-digit calculations. We have been practising our sewing skills for our DT project.

WB: 28.03.2022 - How was Bristol affected by WWII Hook days and World Book Day!

We took a trip out in Totterdown to look for evidence of WWII. We found a row of houses which had be rebuilt after the war, because of bombing. We went to Arnos Vale Cemetery. We found a WWI memorial. We looked at the WWII memorial plaques. We had a moment of reflection. When we were back, we mapped out our journey. We wrote about the evidence we found. Our new book is called 'Rose Blanche'. We looked at the start of the story... ... and used drama to explore the events. Thursday was World Book Day! We came in dressed up as book characters. Can you work out who we are?
