Literacy
In literacy this week, we have been tracing the life of Howard Carter and his role in the discovery of the mysterious tomb of Tutankhamen. Acting in role, we have spent time learning about the historic archaeological find and identifying the thoughts and feelings of the main people involved.
Following our trip to Norwich castle, we have been putting our writing skills to the test using a range of conjunctions and and adverbial to write about how to make a mummy. Ask us all about it but be warned, it's pretty disgusting!
Maths
We have been continuing with our work on fractions. We made our way through through Egyptian themed mazes and shared out treasure as we calculate fractions of an amount and fractions of a set of objects.
P.E
This week we have started our new unit on Hockey and really been enjoying using the new equipment to enhance our stick and ball control.
Science
It may be freezing cold outside, but we have been turning up the heat as we journey to the centre of the Earth to see what is inside our planet. We were surprised to learn that the solid inner core could be as hot as 6000 degrees Celsius.
History
We have been taking on the role of archaeologists and Egyptologists, as we looked at a range of evidence; asking questions and trying to build up a picture of the past using sources that would be available.
Finally, Well done to Amos and Samuel who competed in the second round of the cross country competition and congratulations to the year 3 and 4 gold team coming first in their Tri-golf tournament. What an achievement!
