First Post!

Welcome to class 6Ms new learning blog. At the end of the school day two pupils will be asked to write what we have learnt during the day. Hopefully we will look back at the end of the year and be proud of our achievements.

Today, first of all, we did mental maths. In mental maths we did 10 subtraction sums. Here is one: 62-23=39. They were shown on the computer screen. After some mental maths we we did maths on prime numbers. 7 is a prime number because only 1 and itself go into it. Some other prime numbers up to 60 are: 2, 3, 5, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 51, 53 and 59. 2 is the only even number that is prime.

After the maths, we went down to he hall and did some Welsh dancing. We got into partners and Sir told us what moves we needed to do. As Sir put on the music on we got into our position in the circle with the other 5 pairs. First we had to shake each others right hands 4 times, then our left 4 times. After that we clapped 4 times with our own hands, then clapped our two hands on our partners two hands 4 times. Next we held each others hands and rode into the middle of the circle and out again, we do that twice. After that we criss-cross our hands and spin around 8 times, going back to the position you were in in the first place.
