13 - 19 November 2023 (week 46)

 We practiced measuring in centimetres. We worked out a longest and shortest route for some narwhals through cracks in the ice.

Vinnie practiced writing out some sentences changing from past to present tense and vice versa.

We worked on the next mystery in our mystery science topic. We plotted the locations of volcanoes around the Pacific ring. We thought about if a volcano is likely to appear where we live. We looked at some extinct volcanoes and plotted them on our map from last week showing where the ash fall fossil beds were found. It didn’t look likely that a volcano could have killed the animals, even an extinct one.

We looked at sauropods and practiced estimating their size by measuring fossil bones and multiplying by the scale.

We learned about the saguaro cacti in the Sonoran desert. We watched a clip about their seeds and solved some puzzles about different distances that animals had taken the seeds from the main plant.

Vinnie wrote a story starring his favourite Smash Bros characters.

He also re-wrote a fairy story from one of his books starring some of his cuddly toys. He had a try at paragraphs.

 

He solved some maths sheets with multiplication problems as well as practicing measuring and drawing lines of given lengths.

We practiced some more Spanish greetings and introducing ourselves and played a guessing game in Spanish.

We got a lot of books from the library from a series Vin is enjoying and he has already read most of them.
