Times Table Rockstar Day

We had lots of fun dressing up as Rockstar’s today and taking part in some fun activities based around times tables and Maths. We were at a ‘festival’ and had to look at the times and duration of different bands playing on two different stages. We then had to design a symmetrical guitar, as well as take part in a ‘Battle of the Bands’ times table tournament against Years 2, 3, 5 and 6.

The Mosque

As part of our Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural studies we visited the Al Azhar Mosque in South Shields. We learnt so much about Islam, in particular, the Qur’an. We then went on to learn more about the Qur’an and the 99 Names of Allah in our RE lessons at school. We are extremely grateful to have been invited to learn about other religions in our diverse world and thank the Islamic Diversity Centre for welcoming and educating us.

Science

We have been looking at our teeth and learning all about the different types of teeth we have, their jobs and how to look after them.
