This week’s science challenge is to make electric slime! Email me your pictures for 2 house points.

This half term, we have been learning about light and dark. We were investigating whether a shadow could change size and if so, how? To make it a fair test, we used the same torch and object but changed the distance of the light from the object…what do you think? Does a shadow get bigger or smaller when an object is closer to the light? How does this happen?

Today we showed Year 4 our art work, writing and dance/drama work. They were really impressed! We will be showing parents at the end of term as a full celebration – we will let you know the date and time next half term.

Thank you to UHC Shadwell Synagogue for allowing us to visit and learn so much about what a Synagogue looks like inside. We had a lovely time.

Try this at home…if you can tell me why the fork can hang off the side, I’ll give you 3 house points. 2 house points are available just for having a go!

Grace was the first to take our Maths teddy home and she took him on a brilliant adventure! She measured the distance to the park, the time she spent there and used fractions to help with cooking dinner.

Well done to these children who took part in last week’s science homework!

Do you fancy experimenting at home? Try this and tell me what you think is making the high-pitched sound…3 house points for having a go!

We are learning about fractions.  When we added two fractions together, we noticed that we add the numerator (top number) but not the denominator (bottom number).  Why is this?  For example: 2/5 + 1/5 = 3/5.  3 house points for an accurate explanation with an example.

3LT tried to recreate a Christian Christmas themed piece of artwork to celebrate Christmas.  What a great use of oil pastels, black & silver paper and glitter!
