I remember it well...

Tesellations

During maths we have been looking at shapes that tessellated. We have been using a mix of technology and "old school" cutting and pasting (you know...with scissors  and glue).

Using a parallelogram on google draw we made a shape/scribble on one side, cut and pasted it to the other parallel side. This was then repeated until we had a random shape. We then printed these off, coloured them and pasted them together like a jigsaw. 

Next we are going to investigate why some shapes will tessellate and others won't. 

Plate Tectonics

We watched this cool video and these are the new learning's, or questions that came as a result.

Jackie Thomas!

We were pretty lucky at assembly today as we got to sing Jackie's song back to her! Cool aye?

Replay

we are using this cool little video to inspire us in our writing. Our stories will follow soon...enjoy this in the meantime.

WOW- World of Wearable arts!

In two weeks time we will be holding our biennial WOW evening. This time its a little bit different. Instead of costumes, we have only been focusing on headpieces. It has been a lot of fun so far (as well as very very messy!) and I'm pretty stocked with the work so far. 1 and a half weeks to go!
