On Tuesday we had a P.E./ Science lesson. For this lesson Mr Balls prepared some quizzes on all of the science topics that we have studied over the course of this school year. We got into 6 teams and each team gave themselves a name. The aim for each team was to get a science question correct in order to earn themselves a point but, in order to be given a science question to answer, each team first had to complete a P.E. challenge. The first P.E. challenge was throwing a Frisbee into a bucket. All 6 teams were aiming at one bucket and, if a Frisbee went in, then the challenge was stopped and a question was asked. For the second challenge we had to get the Frisbee to land and stop in the hoop. There was an upside down bucket in the middle of the hoop to make this more difficult. For the third challenge we had to get small balls to land in an upside down cone and stay there. For the final challenge we had to try and get our small hoop to hook on a pole.

In Monday’s maths lesson, we worked in pairs to try and solve a series of maths problems. The problems were hidden under 8 cones, each representing a harder challenge level than the last (Good < Better < Best < Epic < Momentous < Phenomenal < World Class < Legendary). We were only allowed to move from one cone to the next once we had got the answer right (something we had to check with Miss Hayes or Mr Balls) and our overall aim was to try and complete all 8 challenges!
