Structure building using Spaghetti and Marshmallows
As part of our Mantle Topic ‘Skyscrapers,’ Aderyn Du have been planning a skyscraper to Build in Cardiff. We have been looking at different designs and structures and different ways they could be built. We explored a variety of structures by using spaghetti and marshmallows. As you can see from the pictures, some of our structures were unsuccessful, so we evaluated our designs and tried again. We discussed how we could improve our structures and how we could make them stronger and taller.
Measuring the Perimeter and Area of our Skyscrapers
As part of our Mantle this term, Aderyn Du are designing new skyscrapers to be built in Cardiff. We went onto the field to measure the perimeter of our buildings and decided if we thought it was a suitable size. We then calculated the total area and perimeter of our skyscrapers.

Shwmae Day
As part of Shwmae day, Aderyn du took part in a live Teams Giglets story telling session. They were read the story ‘Gelerts Grave’ and learnt new Welsh words related to the story such as ‘blaidd’ which means wolf, ‘dewr’ brave and ‘awrw’ which means hero. We enjoyed the session and enjoyed listening to the story with other schools all over Wales!
