Multiplication Pyramid

In Mathematics we are learning about multiplication.  We made a multiplication pyramid!  We had to use our times tables to make it.  Our pyramid had 12 levels:

1 x 1 = 1

2 x 2 = 4

3 x 3 = 9

4 x 4 = 16

5 x 5 = 25

6 x 6 = 36

7 x 7 = 49

8 x 8 = 64

9 x 9 = 81

10 x 10 = 100

11 x 11 = 121

12 x 12 = 144

We used 650 blocks to make a multiplication pyramid.  We had lots of fun building our pyramid.  It was hard work.

Dirt

By James B, Benjamin and Michael

We are learning about dirt in Science. So far we know that dirt can be both smooth and hard. When it is raining the dirt sometimes becomes soggy. Soil is useful as it helps plants to grow and it protects the roots. Soil can be dark chocolate coloured. It usually has rocks and roots in it. Dirt is a natural material found in the earth. Dirt is considered “the skin of earth.” Dirt can be man made or natural.
