The Welsh Whisperer\Y Sibrwd Cymraeg

The Welsh Whisperer visited Dosbarth Hwyaid Bach, Eryr and Jac-y-Do yesterday to compose a Christmas Song of our very own. We worked within our classes in the morning to compose the lyrics for the song and then all came together in the afternoon to perform the song to the rest of the school. The children agreed that our Christmas Song was a hit and we are all very proud of ourselves of how well it went!!

The Welsh Whisperer then let us party alongside him with him playing a selection of his very own songs. We loved this too, and as you can see from the photos, we all had an amazing time!!

Human Rights Day

For Human Rights Day, Aderyn Du looked at a picture and discussed what Human Rights we could see. We then looked at the rights of a child and used diamond ranking to discuss what we thought was more important and least important. The children had a lot of discussion and all shared their thoughts and ideas about the different articles.

Structure building using Spaghetti and Marshmallows

As part of our Mantle Topic ‘Skyscrapers,’ Aderyn Du have been planning a skyscraper to Build in Cardiff. We have been looking at different designs and structures and different ways they could be built. We explored a variety of structures by using spaghetti and marshmallows. As you can see from the pictures, some of our structures were unsuccessful, so we evaluated our designs and tried again. We discussed how we could improve our structures and how we could make them stronger and taller.

Measuring the Perimeter and Area of our Skyscrapers

As part of our Mantle this term, Aderyn Du are designing new skyscrapers to be built in Cardiff. We went onto the field to measure the perimeter of our buildings and decided if we thought it was a suitable size. We then calculated the total area and perimeter of our skyscrapers.
