Fantastic Mr Fox – Roald Dahl
We had to plan a science investigation to test which parachute would be best to save the Iron man. We investigated whether the size, shape, weight, material and whether the material had holes in would affect how quickly the Iron man fell. We have to make sure that we planned and conducted a fair test.
Today was very exciting day indeed! We started with exploring air resistance then had to design our own parachutes for the Iron man. We then had a visit from Atomic Tom where we learned all about food chains and even disected owl pellets!
We thought carefully about how the words we say can affect people inside, just like the pear. We also discussed the importance of thinking before you speak as you cannot take your words back, just like toothpaste from a tube. We then considered our invisible buckets that fill up the kinder we are to each other.
Today we worked hard to edit pieces of writing so that they were accurately punctuated.
Fantastic efforts on World Book day Foxes 🙂 well done! What a fantastic day we had.
The Iron Man fell from the brink of the cliff and lay scattered on the beach. We sorted the materials into metals and non metals then tested which ones were magnetic.

As part of our innovate week we had to research Iron Age Hillforts. We then used this research to design and make models of a Hillfort.
