Weekly Update 25.6.21

Hello everyone,
This week, Willow Tree have continued working on Geometry, specifically focusing on right, acute and obtuse angles, as well as a focus on drawing horizontal and vertical lines accurately, to create different angles and shapes. In the images below, the children were locating different areas and items within the KS2 playground which has right angles. They were using an orange square to confirm whether it was a right angle or not. If the square fit in perfectly between the two lines, then they could identify it as a right angle. They really enjoyed the activity and it really helped to embed that knowledge of how to identify right angles.
Our topic this term revolves around the Stone Age to Iron Age and this week the children have been learning all about Skara Brae. Alongside learning all about how it was discovered, who discovered it, the time period that it dates back to, where it is located and what was found, the children also used Google Earth to travel from Rufford Park to Skara Brae and to explore it as if they were there in person.
That's all for now, take care :)
Mr Kyriacou :)
