Friday 1st October

On Monday we learned the c sound. Then we made some crazy clowns with
shredded paper and felt.




We have been learning about the sun, moon and stars this week. We made lovely
star pictures with chalk.




We also worked out why we have day and night. We set up an experiement to show this with a torch as the sun and a globe of the earth. Olivia told us that when it's day in Orkney, it's night in Australia. We looked at this during our experiment to help us understand why.





This week we all became authors and wrote our own books. We had to include a front cover and pages with pictures and writing on them. We also had to think of how to bind our pages together.






As it was raining on Wednesday we didn't get outside for a break so we went to the hall to practise relay races, we did some running, jumping and hopping races. Then we got to have a race on the space hoppers! It was great fun!
