Inventions

Room 3 has had a great time working on our inventions inquiry over the last two weeks! So far we have learnt about who can be inventor, what amazing inventions have been created over time and have started thinking about what processes an inventor goes through.

For writing this week we have been designing and building Technics car and then writing a procedure on how to build the car for a buddy. We have really had to think carefully about how much detail we add to our procedure and have had to make so many changes so that our instructions were simple, but still really clear!

Check out the photos of us making our car and writing our procedures.

Daffodil Day 2012

Maths Trail for Maths Week

To celebrate Maths Week on Monday Room 3 and Room 4 joined forces to complete a maths trail. We had a blast finding the answers around the school to the problems that clever Miss Campbell wrote for us! 

Some of the questions we had a answer were:

• Which classroom is closer to the flagpole? Room 3 or Room 5?
• How many number sentences can you make out of Mrs Lynch's number plate?
• Who has more windows for Mr Martin to wash? The senior team or the junior team?

Check out some of the photos from our maths trail below!
