We're all in this together

In our dance lesson today we were working upon "We're all in this together" from High School Musical. In our two sessions so far we have learnt a routine for the verses. Now we can begin to work upon the chorus which we can see here. We should be ready to put it all together ready for just before Easter.

Venn diagrams

In our maths this week we have been looking at handling data. Today we moved onto sorting information into a venn diagram. Here two criteria are chosen to help us to sort through different mathematical data. Have a go at this Venn diagram below.

Can you explain why you have placed the items in the hoops?

Rocks and soils

Today we began our new science topic of rocks and soils. We started with a discussion about rocks and what we think rocks are including some of the names of rocks and soils.

The world according to Humphrey. Chapter 4.

Today we read that Humphrey was taken home by the headteacher of Longfellow school, Mr. Morales. This happened because some of the other teachers had suggested taking Humphrey but made an excuse not to. Mr Morales stepped in saying that he had always wanted a hamster. However the most important man in the school wasn't the most important man in his house. His two children didn't listen to him when he told them to be careful with Humphrey and his wife didn't seem too happy when he brought Humphrey home.

Humphrey though had a plan!

Make your sentences better.

This is a good programme. You start with a very simple sentence. Before you click anywhere, think how you could up-level it (make it more complex). Then click on a part of the sentence and watch it become more and more interesting.

Can you write any sentences like that?
