Summer Term 1

Summer 1 Week 3

Inspired by Katherine Rundell's 'The Explorer', we have planned and written our own adventure story, using a range of cohesive devices. Using the scientific enquiry of 'Observing Overtime', we have investigated different materials that dissolve in water to form a solution. 

Summer 1 Week 2

As mathematicians, we have explored the concept of volume and used our knowledge of multiplication to find the volume of 3D-shapes. In English, we have used Katherine Rundell's 'The Explorer' as a stimulus for our own writing of an adventure story. In Science, we have investigated different properties of materials and presented our findings in a dichotomous key.

Summer 1 Week 1

To launch our topic, 'Marvellous Maya', we had an exciting, immersive workshop where we learnt about the life of the Maya. Throughout the day, we played a game of sacrifice, played a version of 'Pok-a-Tok' and explored different artefacts, including weapons.
