This week in science Eagles have been on the field measuring the distances between each planet in the solar system and other celestial objects such as the Asteroid Belt, Pluto (a dwarf planet) and the sun-which is a star. We used toilet paper! One standard sheet of toilet paper equalled 10,000,000 miles. We rolled the toilet paper out and it went from 30,600,000 miles to 101,000,000 miles! We had such fun and most of us ended up going from one side of the field to another.
Also two members of Eagles, Sophia W and Saul R ( both Yr5) s have been on a trip to Stoke to collect our school's runner-up award for promoting walking, scooting and biking. We came 2nd out of our region . As a school we did very well and Saul stated 'I am very proud that we managed to achieve a runner up award.' also Sophia said ' The food was very yummy!'
In Numeracy we have been working on divison year 5s short division and some year 6s have even been looking at long division. Everyone has now finished there Literacy story about 'The Piano'. and we have now started to look at biographies.
Again we have had a great week and hope for another one next week.
  

This week in Maths we have been learning about short and long multiplication. We found the Short multiplication easier but the Long multiplication quite hard. In English we have been writing our own version of the 1960s Piano story. On Tuesday in the afternoon we had Prentice's Mum come in and she told us all about The Beatles. Then we went into the hall and did the twist, Box dance and air guitar. On Wednesday we finished doing our stories. On Thursday we did French and learnt the words for different types of weather. On Friday we finished our French and  GAPS and did spellings and did mega multiplier and I got 26/26 and Calum got 15/26. We also did Big maths I got 4/10 and Calum got 3/10. That's it for now. You have read the blog that was by
