Wow, what a World Book Day. Some great visits from Julian Warrender and Jamie Thomson, two fabulous local authors. What did you enjoy about their visits? Have you read either of their books? What did you think? Add your comments to this post.

Your home learning task is to prepare for our assembly on Thursday. Get the costumes you need for your advert and collect an old plastic bottle to make into a version of your product.  The second part of the home learning is to have a look on the Children’s University website and further investigate our skeletons. What facts did you discover? Add them as comments to the post.

Linked to our science, this week’s home learning task is to keep a food diary over three days. What did you eat during each day? Record on the Healthy_Living_Homework_11-1-13 sheet, or you can record in your own way. We will be using the results in class, so make sure you complete all three days.

We’ve been designing alarm systems to protect a jewel this week. Have a look at the photos of our investigations into the best circuits.

Towards the end of next week we are going to be looking at the Earth and Beyond and linking our science to this exciting topic.  Your home learning task is to find out some fabulous facts about the Earth, the Moon and the Stars. Either comment the facts onto the blog or write them down in your home learning book, so we can use them in Literacy to help us produce some great information texts.

 

Bubbles Bubbles Everywhere

Yesterday in Science we thought about bubbles and where we could find them. We noticed them in the fermenting yeast, and of course when we used the bubble wands. But where else do you find bubbles? Add your ideas to this post.

Well done with your holiday London Calling tasks, there were some great pieces of work which have really inspired me to continue our discoveries about the Olympics.

Your next Home Learning project is to follow up our work on water cycles, and link to our work later in the term on plants, by having a go at making your own rainforest in a bottle! You will get an Make a Rainforest in a Bottle leaflet to take home, and as rainforests need time to grow, your home learning is due on the 4th May. Good luck!
