Today we completed the National Numeracy Tests, we worked really hard and tried to apply all the skills we had learnt. This morning we also had a visit from Ragsy, who is a contestant in 'The Voice' and he is on Tom Jones' team. He sang a selection of songs and we asked him lots of questions about the show and the music that he likes. We found out that not only does he play the guitar but also he is a very talented songwriter. We cannot wait for tomorrow as we are working with Year 6 on an ICT project and miss has lots of fun activities for us!
Today we completed our Literacy Assessment for the Welsh Government. We had to concentrate and MIss said that we were fantastic as we all tried our best. We worked on our problem solving in the afternoon, looking at lots of different problems. We used our whiteboards and even made up questions to ask each other.
Well, today we have worked very hard. We were working on our problem solving this morning, learning all about analogue and digital time. We have been trying really hard in our mathematics work. This afternoon we were comparing two poems. One was called 'Aliens' and the other was 'The Jumbles' by Edward Lear. We looked for clues to answer questions and then compared the poems. We then looked at punctuation and how to construct complex sentences.
Well we have been working really hard today and researching our Wolves report. We have been thinking about how to get the right information and using a search engine with the relevant words. Our searching techniques improved greatly by just thinking about the information we need to know. Did you know there are under 10000 wolves left in the World? Another group have finished their animation, It's called 'Sea Snake Attack". Have a look, What do you think? We have been very busy today. This morning we were using our problem solving skills in mathematics. Miss gave us lots problems which were not easy to solve but we worked hard and solved them. Miss was very proud of us. Our learning log this weekend was to tell miss all we knew about 'wolves'. We then began to use the information we gathered to create a non-chronological report on the iPad using Book Creator. We found lots of things out. Do you know that the wolf is a carnivore, they have 42 teeth and have rounded ears? This afternoon we were taught by Miss Phillips. We learnt all about Sea Shantys and we began our loom fish weaving. We had lots of fun!
Well we have a great day today. We began the day with Big Writing. We wrote some fantastic stories about 'The Book of.......', where we had to decide what would come out of our book. We had sharks, wildlife and horses. One of us had Doctor Who coming out of the book which made Miss Howells very happy. In the afternoon we filmed our animations using the istopmotion app. Our backdrops were all dry and our models made so we concentrated on taking the frames. It was hard at first as we could only move our models very slowly but we worked hard and produced some incredible animations. Below is an example. We hope you enjoy! Our model making and backdrop creationsWell today we have been very busy. First, we have been working on our mathematics. We were brilliant at money work today! Then we began painting our backdrops for our animations and making our characters. We worked very hard and we are now ready to start creating our animations on friday. We are having so much fun . This afternoon we also had a visit from Super Attender. He arrived by TARDIS. I wonder where the doctor is?
