Autumn Term 2017

Friday 15th September 2017

We started to learn about Tutankhamen and Howard Carter who discovered Tutankhamen’s tomb. Tutankhamen reigned for only ten years, he died when he was 19. He was a pharaoh for 10 years. Every four years the pharaoh ran around a gigantic sand dune 4 times to show they were fit enough to be pharaoh. If they didn’t do it they got stabbed in the heart. When the pharaoh died his wife and servants were killed too so they could be buried together, in the pyramids.

We did partitioning this week and we found it easy peasy lemon squeezy. We also added 10s, 100s, 1000s. I found that fun because we got to show our skills at adding. We also played ‘Hit The Button’ to practise our times tables. Most of us got a turn. Maths is my favourite subject. If you try some maybe you will agree. We played some other fun maths games too.
