Research and Booklet Making

This week, pupils in Rhino Class have been learning about the prehistoric settlement of Skara Brae.

Click on the link below to look at a presentation all about Skara Brae:

Skara Brae Stone Age Information Powerpoint

They have watched videos and read information texts to find out about: when it was made, how it was discovered and what we now know about the people who lived there. To display what they learnt, pupils have made information booklets of their own.

They have worked hard and have really enjoyed conducting their research.

 

Rhino Homework 9.10.20

This week, the homework is linked to our class text ‘Stig of the dump’.

We have just finished reading chapter 4 this week, which ends with Stig causing a stampede during a fox hunt. The challenge for homework, using the word bank given, is to write a description of the hunt and what goes wrong!

Please click on the links below to access the activity sheet as well as chapter 4 just in case you would like to read it again.

Chapter 4

Mirror, mirror….

This week in science the children in Rhino Class investigated the reflections.

They were set a number of challenges to complete, each using a mirror to create reflections.

They had to write a secret mirror message, complete a mirror maze and generate multiple reflections using a hinged mirror. The children were really surprised when what seemed to be so simple at first, turned out to be really difficult. The children great fun and certainly improved their level of concentration.
