Practical maths.

We used a variety of different shaped containers with different scales to measure liquids in litres and mls.



It was fun predicting what 100mls would look like in each container!

Literacy / Science - Explaining the water cycle.

We have been researching the water cycle and discovering how it works. We used our literacy skills to write explanations of the process, our D.T. skills to create a working model and our I.C.T. skills to produce powerpoints.
This is an exampole of how the presentations came together.

Art/ literacy Spots before the eyes!

In our literacy we have been looking at stories from another culture. We have focused on Australia and have been discovering traditional stories from the Dreamtime. We have learnt how the stories have been handed down through music and art as well as story telling.
Here we are trying out the technique of dot painting to illustrate the story of the blue tongued lizard.
