Drawbridge Challenge

Today the children were set the task of creating a working drawbridge with a leaver. They were allowed paper, cardboard and art straws. They all had a fun, creative afternoon.














Starburst fraction challenge

The children were given twenty starbursts each to work out a collection of fraction problems. This ranged of fraction of amounts, adding and subtracting fractions and ordering fractions. This was a really tricky task and they were fantastic at it! Well done Skylarks.




Food for Ancient Greek athletes

We tried a selection of food which athletes ate before the Olympic Games in Ancient Greece. I was really impressed at the amount of people who tried them all. Lots of people liked at least one thing! They had feta cheese, dates and olives with olive oil to dip.
