Art-Warm and Cool colours

In art we have been continuing our exploration of colour theory by looking at warm and cool colours.  

We used the watercolours to mix and create our own warm and cool colours.  We then thought of some names for the different colours we created.  We came up with names such as 'Sailor blue', 'cherry red', 'sunlight orange' and 'bottle green'.  

Invasion - What happened in the 600 years after the Roman withdrawal? 

Today we explored what happened in the 600 years after the Roman withdrawal. We used the timeline that shows the periods of invasion and settlement in England by different groups in the early Middle Ages to match the question to the relevant answer.  We then fed back as a whole class to see if our findings were correct.

Mathematics - Place Value 

Today the children worked together to explore how to to flexibly partition a 4-digit number using base 10 to see how many ways they could flexibly partition. We discussed how we can partition the same number in many different ways and proved this using a range of different resources such as base 10 and arrow cards.
