Week 8, Term 3

This week during maths time we have been looking at continuing a repeating pattern. We used all sorts of materials. Our partners had to work out our pattern and try and repeat it.

For our inquiry topic we have been looking at how heat can change the state of a solid. We started with chocolate buttons as a solid (we knew they were solid because we had to sample one first!!). When we put the bowl of chocolate inside the bowl of hot water the chocolate started to melt. It had turned into a liquid which we could pour into the ice cube tray. We were able to change the shape of the chocolate from a circle to a heart shape. After leaving it for an hour the chocolate turned back into a solid...which of course we had to test again!!

Next week...
Our sounds will be er and ar. Our words will be you and so.
During maths time we will be looking at number sequences.
Please remember to take a look at the children's calendar art which is displayed outside the class. If you wish to order cards, diaries or calendars kindly send back the order form this week.
In the last week of term we are joining together with Room 11 for our folk dancing display. This will be on Thursday 23rd at 2.30pm in Trinity Hall. We are very excited to share our progress with family and friends. A notice will come home next week.
Have a happy and safe week!
