We’re almost ready to design our skyscrapers but first we need to know what types of structures there are. They’re all quite wordy and full of technical descriptions so we’ve had a go at building little models that represent the different types of structures, for example; braced frame, rigid frame, wall-frame, shear wall, core and outrigger, infilled frame, flat plate & flat slab, tube and coupled.
Today our School Council decided we would celebrate Children in Need. Pupils and staff made donations to wear non-uniform.
Barcud Coch have been working hard on a Friday afternoon to complete an extended write! Last week they completed a cold write (no help at all) to recount an investigation they carried out. We then studied recount texts and looked for the features they need. Following on from this, we looked at specific sentence structures and time connective we could use to develop our writing!
We worked with Mr Meredith, looking at a piece of art work by Romola Parish, called ‘Wilderness’
We discussed how the image made us feel and then tried to answer the following questions:-
Where are you standing in relation to the picture? Are you in it, or an observer, watching what is going on?
Which do you relate to- the bird or the sheep? Can you think why you feel more like one, or less like the other?
