In English, we have been continuing our work on the book, 'Oceanology' and wrote a diary entry about our first day aboard the ship. We introduced characters to our adventure: the Captain of the ship and the mysterious professor, who we are assistant to in the story.

In Science, we started to look at the strange and wonderful systems within the bodies of different types of animals and compared them to those of humans. In RE, we found out what a mandala is and what it represents to Buddhists. We then created our own mandala designs. In PSHE, we found out how a baby develops over the nine months from conception to birth. We thought about our own first memories and then thought about what impact a new baby has on a family when it arrives.

Next week in Maths, we will learn about the classic Maths problem, 'The Tower of Hanoi'. We will use a computer simulation to try and solve the 3-disc and 4-disc problem and then think about how we can record the solution to be able to share it. After discussion and debate, we will decide on a method and record our solutions.

Have a lovely weekend, we look forward to seeing you on Monday.
