In Maths in Year 4/5/6, we have been using counters, coins and dice to experiment about Chance and Statistics to achieve certain outcomes. We conducted an experiment to see if whispering to a dice gave us better luck in rolling a number 6. Students conducted a lot of dice rolls, so they had enough data to accurately come up with a justified answer. We concluded that it doesn't matter if we whisper to the dice as it all came down to chance. We drew up accurate graphs to make sure that our findings were visually represented and accurate. Students enjoyed being able to give reasons to support their findings.

  In Science, we have been investigating the topic of Light. We have been looking at shadows, light sources, and the ways that light interact with different objects. We have looked at what happens when light reflects, is absorbed, and transmits. We will continue to look at shadows over the coming week to finish the unit.
