In English Cornwall have continued reading our new term book 'Varjak Paw' the children have been reading and planning their own newspaper articles about 'The Vanishings' and investigating the events leading up to this and how each character would have felt.
In Maths we have continued our topic of statistics. The children have been looking at different way that data could be collected and presented using different graphs - looking at line graphs.
We have also continued our topic in Science, electricity! The children have been investigating programmable devices and where we might see them in school, looking at how they are used and how this would work.
In history we have been looking at ancient Egyptian civilisiation, and seeing how this is different or similar to the ancient Sumerian civilisiation. Recapping all of our knowledge about what we have learnt.
The children enjoyed meeting their new teachers, and spent a morning getting to know each other! Looking at their new gate, playground and classroom!
Cornwall also loved a very warm but exciting sports day! Great participation and outcomes. We thank all the parents who came to watch and even joined in!
Thank you for a great week Cornwall class!
