Our launch
For our launch we had someone come to our school called Pol Wong. We did some Kung fu with him and he taught us some moves and we really enjoyed it.
We used padlet for pupil power and were able to come up with some fantastic ideas for learning opportunities linked to our new topic.We also did some just dance and go noodle to keep fit.
We did lots of art for expressive arts.We drew maniqins in different poses and shaded them in. We learned about shade and tone.Then we drew our self and drew them but this time added colour. After that, we took a photo of our friends and drew it and added colour. We focused on showing movement and expression through art.
For our topic launch we started a marathon challenge. We ran 25 laps of the school yard and wrote it down on a spreadsheet how much we've ran and how much there is to go. We did this because we realised that exercise is important to keep us healthy and improve our wellbeing. We had to use our numeracy skills.
Our forces
We had two magnets and we learnt about the push and the pull of a magnet . If you put two ends that are the same they PUSH away which is called repel but if you put two ends that are different they will PULL together which is called attract. We talked about water resistance and air resistance. We also learned about gravity.
