Today in Kestrel, we have been looking at collecting and representing data. We decided we would test how many star jumps we could each do in 30 seconds. We used the timer function on the iPads to ensure each person only had 30 seconds to achieve their final score.
Following this, we had a look at Microsoft Excel and discussed how we could use it to represent the data we had found.
In line with our year group theme (let’s get physical), Kestrel have been hard at work making interesting instructions for a chosen sport.
We started by drafting our introduction, picking apart the key features so we knew what we needed to include.
We then moved on to upskilling simple instructions considering a range of techniques such as sentence structures and the use of hints and tips.
We finished up by thinking about what needs to be included in our conclusion. We found ways to link it back to the introduction and make it more personalised as well as adding a bit of humour.
Well done kestrel! You have worked really hard!
In Maths, Kestrel have been working hard at finding the missing value and the nth term. We have challenge ourselves to apply our knowledge to problems which include improper fractions.
