Week 8, Term 2
Early Stage 1 have been having a wonderful time exploring the world of 3D objects. They have been using their new knowledge to create the tallest tower whilst explaining their reasoning as to why certain objects would not stack well.
Stage 3 recently finished their unit on time. They displayed some exceptional skills with Content A exploring the Paris Olympics' timetable to identify the events they would attend and if they would have time to do more than 1 event in a day once travel was factored in. They have now begun focusing on their length unit, which they will continue until the term's end.
