This week in Milky Way Class we looked at capacity and volume in Maths. In English we wrote our own weather reports about the Thames and the Tide Club and we performed them to our friends. They were great! In Computing we learnt how to code and we loved making our own sprites (characters).

A wonderful start to the summer term! Milky Way class have worked very hard this week and I am extremely proud of what they have achieved.

In Maths we have been looking at mass. This involved comparing, estimating and measuring the mass of objects. Moving on to solving problems involving grams and kilograms, in which the children were required to convert the amounts and find midpoints between two intervals.

 

In English lessons we are reading The Thames and the Tide Club – a club which all the children are now proud members of! The book tells the story of a group of children who enjoy walking the river shores searching for treasure and secrets! 

 

In Art we had great fun experimenting with clay. We loved looking at sculptures and got inspiration on how to create our own.
