They created maths games which included questions on addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Book week in maths
This week, for book week, we have begun by looking at the traditional tale of three little pigs and Roald Dahl's revolting rhyme adaptation.
In groups we have to decide how we would walk together, with only a specific amount of equipment and no instructions, to make one of the three pigs' houses.
Check out our attempts at a house made out of bricks (cubes), twigs (match sticks) and straw (paper).
(All houses withstood our blowing tests!)

Nest building and pond dipping!
We spent this afternoon building nests in
our quiet area and pond dipping in our school pond.
We used materials from the floor to build our nests. These included twigs, branches, leaves and sticky weed to make our nest, we tested them using pebbles, and finally put them in a tree for a bird to use!
Please take a look at our photos!

We are very lucky to have
a pond at Roydon School and we have been busy observing pond life. We found
water boatmen, newts, tadpoles, woodlice, centipedes and worms. We used nets,
view finders, magnifying glasses, trays and spoons to study the creatures we
found. Each creature was looked at very carefully and we made sure we returned
them all to their habitat.
Please take a look at our photos!
