Term 2 Week 4
We’ve had another fantastic week of learning!
As scientists, we investigated the fascinating world of magnets. We explored magnetic poles and discovered how magnets can both repel and attract each other. We also posed an intriguing question: Can a magnetic field pass through different materials? Using a simple paperclip, we tested this idea and uncovered some very interesting results!
As artists, we turned our creativity to history by crafting fabulous Viking longboats from clay. We thought carefully about details such as the hull and dragon-headed prows. The results were very impressive. It was wonderful to see such skill and attention to detail from everyone!
As mathematicians, we focused on multiplying and dividing by 10 and 100, exploring related number facts through a variety of fluency and problem-solving challenges. This helped us deepen our understanding of place value and strengthen our mental strategies.
As writers, we continued and completed our class book Odd and the Frost Giants. We then began preparing for our own stories, innovating a new ending to the book—an exciting opportunity to let our creativity shine!
As historians, we re-enacted the sequence of events that led to the ruling of King Canute.
