Sound- how do these instruments make a sound?

Science- how are sounds made?

We started our work off by looking at how different instruments make sounds and how those sounds we our ears. We then took ourselves outside with dataloggers to investigate the decibel levels of a beating drummed as we moved away from it.

Planet Omar- Accidental Trouble Magnet

Our English work for the next 4 weeks is based around this book. This week, we have found about about the characters, started to read the first 2 chapters and linked Omar's troubles to events that have happened in our own lives. We have heard some great stories from the children!
