Work shadowing week

Hello,

Firstly, thank you to those of you who joined us this week in Oak class. We really enjoyed sharing our learning with you, and appreciate you taking time out to be with us.

We have done a lot of learning this week! 
In English we have been thinking about how adjectives or describing words can help make our writing more exciting and how it helps us describe different things in detail. We wrote descriptive words and sentences about different locations. 
At the end of the week, we used our adjectives to then write a poem, using our adjectives. There have been some fantastic poems, some of them even rhyme!

In Maths we have looked at length using rulers and meter sticks. We have explored weight and tried to find things that weighed 10 cubes. We also did an experiment today with 3 cars. We had to test the cars to see if the blue car was the fastest, we love it! Sometime the blue car won the race, but sometimes it did not.

In science this week we have looked at living and non-living things and sorted them into a table. Today we learnt about different types of animals and wrote a fact about them. We learnt about; mammals, fish, birds, reptiles and amphibians. 

During Topic this week we thought about where we live, our village, our county, our country and our continent. We then looked at the UK and the different parts of the UK; England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland. We had a map and put the flags in the right places.

What a busy week!

This week Plop will be flying home with Sienna for always persevering and trying her best in every subject.Well done Sienna.
