RE- Learning about the significance of light

In RE, we've been thinking about light sources and how they make us feel.  This links to a later question that we will discuss, 'Why is light an important symbol for Christians, Jews and Hindus?' We've worked in groups this afternoon to try and think about different light sources. 

Representing Numbers in Maths

Science- Exploring Materials

This term's science is all about exploring everyday materials.  This week we have been trying to work out which material would be best to help the dog cross the bog in the story of the Smartest Giant in Town. We looked at a range of materials and compared how stretchy they are.  We also researched the different properties of materials around the school. We thought about how to make our tests fair and worked together to get the job done!
