Lucas: This week in English we have been writing an argument text about whether or not a new character in the book (Ma) can be trusted. I found writing the piece quite difficult, but we were able to use quotes from the book to support what we were trying to say.
Mattie: In Science this week, we completed an investigation where we were looking at the variations in hand-spans between children in our class. I found that there was very little variation between people. Other people found that there wasn't a particular pattern between hand-spans, and many of us thought that the size would possibly mirror how tall a person was, but this wasn't the case.
Hayley: In Maths we have been thinking about how we can do mental calculations based on facts we know. I really enjoyed this.
