YR5 Macaw Class News @FP
Macaw class @FP have been working hard in maths looking at angles and using a protractor to measure angles accurately. In English, we have been learning about explanation texts and we are in the process of planning and writing our own.
This half term in DT we have been learning all about the construction of bridges. We have learnt about the different types of bridge designs such as arch, beam and cantilever. During our sessions we then had a go at designing our own bridge using the knowledge we have learnt, followed by making our product. We used carboard, lolly sticks, glue and pipe cleaners to construct our designs. Take a look at our carefully designed bridges.
