Year 5's Aztec Exhibition!

On Thursday before we broke up, year 5 offered us the chance to come and view their Aztec exhibition. They showcased everything they had been doing in their topic, and they had also made games that we had the opportunity to play, costumes for us to try on, and information for us to find out about!

We really enjoyed it and had lots of fun! Add a comment, what did you like best?!

The Night Sky!

This week across literacy and topic, we are learning about the night sky and the features of our solar system so we can include some facts in our non-fiction text. Here we are making solar systems out of play dough, using pastels to create a night scene and making our information leaflets using purple mash about the night sky.

Can you remember the poem to remember the order of the planets? Mr Viper Eats Metal Jam Sandwiches Under No Pressure!!

Pirate Art!!

Over the past week or so we have been having a go at some pirate artwork using a sponging technique to make the waves and then adding a Galleon and pirate scene using oil pastels to blend over the paint. The finished pieces look really effective!!!

Pirate Co-ordinates!!!

This week in maths we have been learning about co-ordinates and we were fab at reading co-ordinate grids so we started to link co-ordinates into direction. We made our own pirate co-ordinate maps and tested our partners to see if they could identify the different features, and we all challenged each other with our giant co-ordinate grid.

 

You can try these co-ordinate games at home on the computer...

 

This one is a little tricky, place the red dot for each insect on the correct co-ordinate clicking HERE
