In topic Sparrowhawk class went on a school trip to the Thinktank museum in Birmingham. We saw an array of exciting things and we learned even more. We even had the privilege to take part in a workshop- it had a very interesting topic, rocks! We were told all the different types of sequences that the rocks had to go through to make three categories that are the basic building blocks of all type of rock: metamorphic, sedimentary, igneous.  

Maths:  

In maths, we  have been doing lots of algebraic equations and some very tricky tests to prepare the year sixes for their sats. In algebra, we have also been getting up to some variables and a lot of other very exciting things.
