An awesome week in G6 as we make excellent headway on 3 fronts in Literacy, Mathematics and our How the World Works unit of inquiry.
Literacy – we have been…
- Exploring transition words
- Identifying technical vocabulary
- Planning our explanation text ‘How is energy transferred on a roller coaster?’
- Drafting an explanation text
Mathematics – we have been…
- Identifying 6 types of angles
- Finding angles in triangles and quadrilaterals based upon known facts
- Using a protractor accurately
Unit of Inquiry – we have been…
- Classifying different energy forms
- Researching examples of each form of energy
Next Week, we will be….
- Building Vortex Cannons (to explore how energy is transferred)
- Completing our first explanation texts (revising, editing and publishing)
- Reviewing core maths skills from recent weeks
(We need lots of boxes like this, to build vortex cannons with.)
Have a great weekend,
Grade 6
