Ithaca Class ending 14.02.25

This week in Ithaca…

In Maths, the children built on their knowledge of measuring lengths using metres and centimetres and were introduced to kilometres. The children were able to understand that kilometres are greater than metres and are used to measure greater distances. Furthermore, the children partitioned measurements into the number of kilometres and metres and made links with addition.

In Computing, the children developed their skills to design an automated machine to respond to sensor data. The children were able to understand how weather forecasts are made and used ipads to present a weather forecast. The children considered keywords to effectively search for information on the Internet, recorded data in a spreadsheet and created a short video for a weather forecast.

In Design and Technology, the children were able to identify the features, benefits and disadvantages of a range of fastening types. The children wrote a design criteria and made a template for their book sleeve. Furthermore, the children assembled their book case using different sewing techniques.
