Today, we began making our Moving Toys. We watched Mr Henderson show us how to use a saw carefully and then we measured our wood and cut it out. 

This week, my maths group have been focusing on the different types of graphs and when we would use each type of graph. Look at the comparative graphs we have made in the ICT room this week!

HOMEWORK:
You must add a comment to this post and create a question for other people to answer about a graph (make sure you explain which one is yours!). You must then reply to someone else´s question to show you can ask and answer questions about graphs. 

This week we have begun our new topic on Moving Toys. We have been learning the names of each part and what each part does. 

We planned, tested and evaluated an experiment to see what were the best conditions for seed germination. We found out that the seeds in the classroom and in the cupboard germinated the best, the seeds on the window ledge germinated but burnt with the heat and the seeds in the fridge did not germinate because of the temperature. 

Today, we began coding a new game in year 5. If you would like to have a go at home, click on the button below. 

Today, we went on a seed hunt to find as many variety of seeds as we could in the playground. We managed to find several varieties. We then researched the various methods of seed dispersal.

To celebrate Halloween, we all dressed up in scary costumes and completed a variety of activities in our houses. We all had lots of fun!

This week, pupils have been learning about deforestation and how they can help. They created information leaflets and then shared them with other people in the class. They are now on display in the corridors.
