We have really enjoyed studying prehistoric cave paintings in Art – we have explored pencil and charcoal to create simple, bold outlines and have used earthy colours to enhance our cave drawings and make them look more authentic. Here are some amazing examples…

In Science, we have continued to look at skeletons. Did you know, there are two main types of skeleton? Exoskeleton and endoskeleton. Creatures like slugs and jellyfish have what is known as a ‘hydrostatic skeleton’, which is a fluid-filled sack that holds them up!

History has transported us right back in time to prehistoric Britain. We are learning abut the people and animals that lived at that time and how they survived. Woolly Mammoths were a vital part of the life of prehistoric man as they were used for many things after they had been hunted. Take a look at the photos below to see our work on this.

Place Value is our learning in Maths. We have looked at different ways to make 3-digit numbers, by moving the ones, tens and hundreds around. It was great fun working in a group to see if we could find all the possibilities.
