Year 3 Stone Age Boy, by Mrs Hover
Date: 26th Jan 2024 @ 10:25am
In English, we have been learning more about the Stone Age. We started the week by finishing our writing comparing Stone Age food and food today. Then, we created five different areas in the classroom where the children acted out lots of different activities that would have been carried out in a Stone Age community. We used this to create lots of sentences using the ‘present perfect’ tense to show that these activities have been carried out recently e.g. I have sharpened the flint spearheads. The children then used these sentences to create a report for the community leader. They wrote about their activities for the day using lots of ‘I have…’ sentences.

The tool we are practicing this week as part of Zones of Regulation is 'Stand tall'. We practiced doing this together.
Congratulations to our Year 1 children who received their Celebrate certicates today after completing Module 2. We recapped today on our learning about character strengths before moving on to our new module called Appreciate.
As part of our myHappymind work today we have learnt what appreciate means and stopped to think about the people in our lives that we are grateful for. We also reflected on where our own happy places are.
Some children that shared their happy place were:
Lea - Slovakia, seeing her grandma
Deheer - India, seeing her cousins
Aedan and Miss Harris - home
Babe - at Debbie's exploring the toys
Bob - Mexico

Wow... Year 2 have had a busy few days and it's been lots of fun!
We have been working hard to secure our knowledge of division (we are very impressed with them). We began our new Geography topic 'Let's go to the Arctic' where the children loved getting wrapped up and going on an arctic explore.
We have finished the week with art, exploring ways of rock painting. The children enjoyed learning all about how native Americans and Aborigines use to make their paint!
Well done Year 2....we are off to a great start this term!

Explorers in Year 1, by Mrs Bailey
Date: 5th Jan 2024 @ 4:58pm
We have enjoyed learning about a very famous explorer called Christopher Columbus. We discovered that he was an explorer amd compared what life was like in the 1400's to life now.
The children enjoyed pretending they were Christopher Columbus and telling us what they were thinking as people around them told him it wasn't a good idea to go exploring. We imagined being on one of the three ships setting off on their exploration and learnt about what life would have been like on the ship, what they ate, where they slept, how they kept themselves safe, how they communicated with each other and their family and friends and the work that they needed to.
Thank you to the Kings students for playing the Columbus board game with us this afternoon to help us remember our learning from the morning.
