We had good fun in the computer room researching different people who were involved with the Titanic. The only thing we had to begin with was a picture. We had to find out their name and more information about them!

TITANIC!! We have just started a new topic and are really excited to learn more about the Titanic. Today we completed a carousel activity. There were 4 areas, each with a different title- ‘The Ship’, ‘People’, ‘Places’ and ‘Other’. We had 4 minutes, with our group, at each area to write down everything we know. We then came together at the end to present and discuss all the points that were recorded.
STEMππ¨
P7 have been looking at how air can be used as an energy source. We created a Balloon Jet and had a competition to see which Jet would travel the furthest across a piece of string. Each group came up with the design that they believed would be the best.

Each group was gave a different environment. They had to think of ways the describe that particular place and record these using Alan Peat’s ‘2 Pair Sentences.’
Numeracyπ’π§
In class we have been looking at the properties of 3D shapes. Today we looked at the net of a cube. We had to cut each example out and decide whether it was or wasn’t the net of a cube by folding it accordingly.
