Art 
LO: To use use pastels to create mood and feelings
We have used oil pastels to start producing art inspired by New York which is the setting of our class text The Good Thieves. We have started to think about creating a reflection using symmetry. Look out for the final piece!

We have started by thinking about E-Safety. We have produced leaflets about how best to deal with Cyberbulling including strategies for gathering evidence.

We have been using Tinkercad to try and create a 3D Maya temple. We had to consider the different angles as we built the object to try and keep it symmetrical.

In maths we have started the year by exploring place value of numbers all the way up to 10 million.

We have developed our frisbee skills over the half-term ahead of the competition. We ended up applying these into match scenarios. 
History

We have been discovering what life was like for the Ancient Maya. We started by trying to figure out their number system as a class which then linked into their way of recording time and calendar. We made our own which we used to help solve Maya maths problems.

We created art to reflect on all of the things that we value.
