This week, we began to write our suspense stories. We have been using a variety of sentence types and lots of ambitious vocabulary in our writing.
In science, we learnt about the theory of natural selection and enjoyed being predators looking around the classroom for coloured paper (that represented moths). The paper was camouflaged which made it hard to spot. We thought about how animals and plants have adapted to their environments, meaning they are more likely to survive and pass their genes on to offspring.
Here’s a game to play that links to our learning about moths and natural selection: Natural Selection Game – Play | Ask A Biologist
In art, we have been continuing our component of learning about photography and this week took macro photos, editing them by adjusting the saturation and other settings – see some of the photos above.
