This term in Tortoises! 🐢

Tortoises have been enjoying lots of learning this term. Fractions and long multiplication have been a highlight of our maths journey and everyone has risen to the challenge with an ACE attitude. In English we have been reading Kensuke's Kingdom and used the author's wonderful language to inspire our own setting descriptions as well as being hooked into the story, wanting to know more.

Science has seen us learning about the circulatory system and how to keep ourselves healthy and we can blame the ancient Mayan Civilisation for our love of chocolate as they were the first to use the cacao beans to make a delicious hot chocolate drink! We have been very active in PE and tested our heart rate before and after activities.
