In the eyes of God, every child matters, every moment of every day

World Book Day Poetry.

Happy World Book Day!

We chose to perform 'The Ocean's Blanket' by Carol Ann Duffy. It is a poem of contrast that links to the book we are reading this term - The Varmints.

It also links beautifully to our previous Global Development Topic - Life below water, where we looked at the wonders of the Ocean.

We hope you enjoy.

    This week we have really enjoyed doing art. In art we were making Christmas cards by using coloured inks to make either Christmas trees or snowmen. We printed our cards. 

    We have also enjoyed reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. We are hoping to finish it today! 

    This week we have enjoyed making our trains in DT. We stuck them together by using sellotape and we used wooden wheels, wooden axels and a cardboard base. We used junior hacksaws to cut the wood to the right size. 

    We also had a surprise today which we enjoyed. 

    We have been using our maths skills to complete some maths colouring which we loved doing. 

    We also got to watch the Christmas Carol Concert, it was really good. Last week we went to church to record our song for it, it was fun. 

    We have made LOTS of mess this week! But we have been great at tidying it up. See the pictures below. 

    Merry Christmas and a happy new year

    This week we have enjoyed making poppies for our school remembrance display. 

    We have also enjoyed English because we are also learning about the Stone Age as we find out what Ug is up to. 

    We enjoyed sewing before half term and are looking forward to doing it again so we can finish our book marks. 

    In maths we have been learning about inverse and trying to check answers to additions and subtractions using inverse. 

    We have started a new topic in Science which is all about forces and magnets. 

    We have also done some tests which some of us found fun. 

    Have a lovely weekend,

    This week has been good but we're all ready for a break. 

    In maths we have been practicing adding and subtracting 3 digit numbers to and from 3 digit numbers. We're starting to get pretty good at it. 

    In English we've been describing an object or place related to nature. We had to use figurative language in it. 

    The best part of the week has been working on our cross stitch. We've been working hard on making sure it's neat and we don't get our thread knotted up.

    We hope you have a lovely half term and come back well rested.

    Talk Homework: Explain how fossils are made.

    Please ensure you read daily for a minimum of 15-20 minutes.

    Dear All,

    This week has flown by and we can’t believe there is only one more week until half term. The children have settled in so well.

    This week, in Maths, we have been learning column addition and subtraction with regrouping. We have worked so hard and are beginning to make real progress in our learning.

    To help support their learning, please find a list of additional activities should they wish to complete:

    Abacus - The children can access this resource via the website https://www.activelearnprimary.co.uk 

    https://ttrockstars.com/

     

    In English, we have continued with the theme of poetry and the children have really impressed me with their ability to understand figurative language. We tied this in with a lovely art lesson on blackberries. Yummy!

    In Science, we are studying how fossils are formed and the children now have an understanding of the process. Hopefully, they will be able to tell you all for their talk homework.

    We have also been learning about Education this term. We have learned about Education in Britain and France. We have also looked at how education has developed over the centuries, including both Victorian Education and Education in The Middle Ages.

     

    We hope you all have a lovely weekend.
