Reptile Rescue Service

Today we decided on our company name.  We will become a team of experts working for the "Reptile Rescue Service"

This was decided in a vote, and then name came from EM YF and CV.  They decided that there aren't many dinosaurs around, so it might be a good idea if we helped look after other reptiles too.

Herbivore, Omnivore or Carnivore?

We couldn't decide if the dinosaur was a Herbivore (can only eat plants), Omnivore (can eat both) or Carnivore (only eats meat).  We decided that humans are omnivores, but some people decide to not eat meat.  They are called Vegetarians.

We decided to try to trick the pesky dinosaur by leaving some delicious leaves, salad, cakes and meat.  And whatever the dinosaur eats will give us a clue to what it is.

Sumdog

WOW

This week we have started to have a go on sumdog, where we can play games and work on our maths at the same time.  I gave out the sumdog usernames and passwords this week.  Please ask if you need them writing down again!

P.S

Well done to FA, OF, BH, SJ, EM, and HS for already having a go!

Fossils found in our class!

While Green and Blue Groups went with Mr Murphy to learn how to use SumDog (more next week) Red and Yellow groups had a go at using clay to make some fossils, as well as amazing models using clay.  We hope you like them.

A Dinosaur in our class?!?

Today we agreed that a Dinosaur came through our classroom!  We decided that yes, they probably left footprints and so decided to make some.  HS realised that his paper was too small so asked for a larger piece.  We tried to lay them out in the classroom but thought they were too close together!
