How does insulation work?

This week, we all worked really hard on our reading, grammar and maths booklets. Some classes still have a booklet or so to go, but we are really proud of everyones efforts in showing what they have learnt under timed conditions. In Science, some classes investigated how effective different meterials are at insulating hot water, with some really interesting results! In English, we have started reading The Matchbox Diaries, which is a fascinating story about a family of Italian immigrants making a life for themselves in the USA in the 1800s. In computing, we have made our first prototype website which we will analyse and improve on next week, then will be adding a range of different media devices to. In Maths, we are about to start an exciting unit on fractions, so any revision you can do on this theme over the weekend will certaihnly be useful!
