What an amazing week we have had continuing with our Secret Agent Training! We are so proud of how you have all got on with such confidence and positivity. Well done everyone! Our training will continue next Tuesday and Wednesday and then we will all be fully fledges Secret Agents.

The children have brought home their mini greenhouses today and it has been so interesting to watch as the seeds germinated and see all of the different parts of the new plant as they grew. We dres and labelled seeds with lots of exciting scientific vocabulary like embryo, seed coat and food store. I wonder if your children can tell you about each of these. We then went on to compare the seeds that we had planted in different conditions and it was fascinating to see that some of our predictions were correct but some were not. What stood out the most was that the bean that had bean planted with water but no sun had grown very tall but the plant was white. CHALLENGE: Can you research why this might have happened?

Our big WELL DONE this week goes to our Numbots winners Alyssia and Amelia, our TTRS winners Jaydan, Kobe and Keiya and our Excellent Examples Courban, Alyssia and Sophia.

Please do keep practising on Numbots and TTRS as this will help enormously with our Sectret Agent Missions next week! Another website that is great for practising your maths skills is Hit the Button (link below).

We hope that you all have a brilliant weekend and a well earned rest and look forward to more fun and learning next week.
