Calista D. - 5/6M

This award goes to Calista for the effort she has taken in maths PONT groups whilst learning about angles. Calista asked questions when she was unsure of the task and now can use a protractor to measure degrees and is confident in explaining complimentary and supplementary angles.

Logan A. - 5/6W

For demonstrating his in-depth knowledge of complementary and supplementary angles. During Maths this week, Logan confidently used a protractor to measure a variety of angles. He identified missing angles and checked his measurements to make sure they were accurate and that they totaled up to the correct value of 90̊ or 180̊. Amazing effort Logan! Keep up the wonderful work!
