In Maths we continue to learn about length and perimeter. Did you know that equivalent means equals to/the same?
10mm = 1cm
100cm = 1m
We have used these units of measure to work out the following:
60mm = 6cm
80mm = 8cm
2m = 200cm
In Learning Means the World we started our new unit, Rocky the Findosaur. We have learnt about the three main types of rocks - metamorphic, sedimentary and igneous. We also learnt about fossils and created a flowchart to show the fossilisation process. We have enjoyed bringing rocks and fossils into class to look at carefully.
In spelling we have learnt about the prefixes tele- and sub-. The prefix sub- means below and tele- means at a long distance. We have practised adding the prefixes to a range of root words.
sub + marine = submarine
sub + way = subway
tele + phone = telephone
tele + vision = television
