Maths is fun in V6
In Maths this term, V6 have been learning about all things measurement. The students have learnt that mass is how heavy or light something is, capacity is how much a container can hold and length is how tall or short something is.
To consolidate their knowledge students have completed many hands on learning activities such as:
- Grouping objects around the room as light or heavy.
- Turning themselves into balance scales.
- Filling various containers with sand and ordering them from most to least capacity.
- Ordering classmates names from shortest to longest.
- Building block towers and ordering them from shortest to longest.
- V6 even combined their measurement learning with Book Week and used informal units to measure ribbon like the ones in the story Gymnastica Fantastica.
You could say the students of V6 are now measurement experts!
Values Awards
Our Values Awards are announced at each assembly. Staff are looking to acknowledge students who are demonstrating any of our 3 values, Respect, Honesty and Courage, throughout the school day. This could be in learning time, when moving around the school or visiting different areas such as the office. Below are our winners from the week 9 assembly.
