You calculated perimeter and began working with angles in maths. In the afternoons, you understood what vector drawings were and created some of your own in computing, and you drew moving figures in proportion in art.  You also made paper aeroplanes when testing your theories around air resistance in science.  In PSHE, we spent an afternoon learning about different elements of first aid, during which you asked lots of sensible questions, and this morning you took part in an additional session about recognising emotions.  Next week will be a very unusual one.
