These turned out really great and look even better in the sunlight! I think you did a great job with your blending. I kind of didn't want to try it because that blending task looked really hard. Do you think you think you could do blending with paint? That would be real messy a.
What a busy start to our new term. We've immediately begun investigating chemical reactions, including how food matter changes when combined and cooked. Check out the gas reactions we had with combining lemon juice, vinegar or water with baking soda or baking powder. We have also moved on to looking at fractions, especially their size and which are bigger or smaller that each other. I can see it won't be long before we start sharing out jelly beans and cutting cake to work out how to share it evenly.
The last few days we have been challenging each other with working out if we have been making repeating or growing patterns in Maths. We have also been finding ways to make a code to follow so that we can name the patterns we have also been making or studying, and also beginning to predict what will come next in the sequence. Today we began working on increasing and decreasing pattern sequences, and how tables can be made to show the changing patterns. Our next challenge for tomorrow is to use each other's creations to predict what might come in the 5th, 10th or 12th position, or even the number of cubes we would need to make them.
We've been given a challenge to write a summer poem, that uses only 3 of our senses, based on a picture of a boy mowing a lawn. Stage 1 was to draw and then brainstorm some ideas for the sounds and smells we would have on a summer's day while lawns are being mown in the neighbourhood. Today's stage was to read the mentor's piece of writing, and look at the set out and language used. Using highlighters we located nouns, verbs and adjectives; talking about how they were used and what they do in a piece of writing. Our next stage is to write our own, and share with each other so that we can make it come alive for our readers.
