We have had a very busy month in Ms. Kane’s class. We’ve enjoyed celebrating Maths Week, taking part in STEM activities, baking and celebrating Hallowe’en!
Maths Week was a super opportunity for us to play some of our favourite problem solving games like draughts, Jenga and Frustration! We also took part in Place Value races in the hall and loved watching Maths TV.
Fractions! 
Teamwork! 
Problem solving! 
A close game!
We loved taking part in a simple STEM challenge to see which team could build the longest paper chain. It sounds easy but we’d recommend lots of teamwork to make it work! We only used 1 sheet of a paper, a pair of scissors and a stapler to complete the challenge. We had a time limit of 12 minutes and we all successfully made a paper chain, with the longest chain measuring 180cm!
Our favourite weekly activity is baking and we got to create some of our favourite recipes this month! We made s’mores (back by popular demand!) and chocolate apples to celebrate Hallowe’en! We were happy our friends in 6th class could enjoy some s’mores with us!
Finally, we had a fantastic time celebrating Hallowe’en together! Everybody made such a fantastic effort with their costumes! We’re looking forward to seeing what next month brings!
Happy Hallowe’en!
