This week in maths we have looked at angles, learning how to identify acute, obtuse , right angle, and reflex angles. We use protractors to measure angles in degrees and we now know that a right angle is 90 degrees and a staright line was 180 degrees.

Our new topic topic this half term is the Vikings . We are very exited because this means that we get to go to one of the main Viking cities (York). We did a paired write pretending to be one of the monks that survived the Viking attack in Lindisfarne. We used first hand evidence from the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle to get the true feelings and language of the monks. It was very interesting learning about the monasteries that the Vikings demolished and pillaged . 

Our new indoor P.E. lessons will be all about dodgeball. Today is going to be our first lesson and we are looking forward to it. Overall it has been a great week.
