String Cup Telephones

We were investigating how sound travelled over distance in science.  We made string cup telephones to see how sound travelled.  Can you remember the explanation for why we could hear the sound from a further distance using these telephones?

2X Table Games

We are working on our 2x table at the moment.  We have been playing a board game to help us with this and we made fortune tellers to test each other's knowledge.  If you see us around school, ask us a question!

Tricky Tangrams

 
We had a tangram puzzle to solve.  We needed to create a square, right angled triangle and two squares of equal sizes from seven different triangles and quadrilaterals.  We found it tricky but we persevered!  Three pairs were able to make a square and one pair was able to make a right angled triangle!

Giant's Pencils

This week in maths we have been multiplying numbers by 10 and 100.  We applied our knowledge by making pencils for a giant by measuring our own pencils, multiplying them by 10 and then drawing new ones.  Can you imagine writing with a pencil this big?
 







Testing Circuits

This week in science we have been testing whether different circuits work to see if we could light a lamp.  Most of our predictions were correct!
