What do you call a dinosaur with one eye? Doyouthinkhesaurus!

Well, he definitely would have seen you if he had one eye like these. In art, we had to design a dinosaur eye and use pastels to make it stand out. Here are some of ours.

Today, we have been discovering that dinsoaurs were found all across the world. We worked together as a class to complete our world map.

As we begin our work on our Extinction topic, we began by looking at cave paintings. Having created some initial ideas (acting like cave men - drawing upside down under the tables) we then created our own designs using charcoal and chalk. Here are a few of ours. 

As part of our art studies, we focussed on Leonardo Da Vinci. Having looked at his inventions, we had the chance to design our own. Here are some of ours.

We had lots of fun using electricity and circuits to create our own games. 

As part of our inventors topic, we had to design our own robot, write a clear set of instructions for how to build it and write down what it is used for. Take a look at some of our examples  - would you like any of these to make your lifre easier?

We have been looking at the use of the internet and how it has developed over the years. Look at some of the interesting things we have discovered so far.

As part of our lessons on our topic inventors, we are doing a research project to explore the impact the invention of the internet has had on our lives.

Throughout this week, the children in Saturn have worked towrds preparing an Afternoon Tea as part of their D and T project. The week has included researching afternoon teas; carrying out data handling; designing a cup an dsaucer and a three tier cake stand as well as preparing to create their own afternoon tea. Thursday morning, the children all worked in teams to bake a range of delicious goodies and, finally on Friday, they got to enjoy the results of their hard work.

Today we have been looking at the Phases of the Moon. We learned how the Moon appears to change shape depending on the view from Earth on the parts of the moon lit up by the sun. We used Oreos to show what we have learned. It was very tempting, but we didn't eat any of our science work.

In art we have been looking at Op art (optical illusion art) the children then had a go at creating some of their own using weaving.

As part of our studies we have looked at why Earth is called the Goldilocks planet. Once we had leanre dthe reasons for the name, we created a comic strip for an alien named Arbie who was looking for somewhere new to live.

We began our look into our space topic by looking at the order of the planets. We created some mnemonics to help us remember.
