European Day of Languages, by Miss Jones

Date: 29th Sep 2016 @ 6:27pm

On Monday we celebrated European Languages Day. We are very lucky to have people in the class who can speak different languages. We learnt how to say hello/goodbye, tell someone our name and count to ten, in 4 different languages. Katie taught us in Slovakian, Zofia taught us in Polish, Lindsay taught us in French and Miss Jones taught us in Welsh. 

Year 3 trip to Tesco, by Miss Jones

Date: 29th Sep 2016 @ 6:17pm

We all had a brilliant time on Tuesday, when we went to Tesco for the Farm to Fork Trail. Our guide was called Alan and he knew lots of foodie facts. We started off doing a fruit and vegetable hunt to explore different ways to get our 5 a day. We got to try lots of fresh fruit and vegetables straight from the shelves! We even tried raw broccoli! After that, we visited the sugar and cereal section to discuss just how much sugar we should be eating everyday. We also learnt how to read food labels to check the amount of sugar in our favourite breakfast cereals. At the end of the trail, we went into the warehouse to see behind the scenes at Tesco. This is where we made our own healthy, low sugar cereal. 

The children's behaviour on the bus and in Tesco was absolutely fantastic so they were all awarded 'attitude of the day'.

European Day of Languages, by Mrs Hover

Date: 29th Sep 2016 @ 6:47am

On Monday 26th September, Year 4 spent the morning celebrating 'European Day of Languages'.  Activities included using atlases to find the outline of different European countries and matching countries to their flags.  In groups, the children researched either Scotland, Germany, Italy, Spain or Poland looking at capital cities, population, famous landmarks, food... creating an information board on their findings. They then presented their European countries to the rest of the class.  

On Tuesday, the children thoroughly enjoyed learning some Polish from Franek.  Franek taught us lots of words, read to us in Polish and shared some tongue twisters which were really funny!

Never smile at a crocodile..., by Mrs Harrison

This week, Year 1 have had a cheeky visitor who clearly liked to eat the most objects or the bigger number. He was a very greedy Mr Croc!

During our art and computing lesson, Year 1 drew portraits of themselves with the biggest smiles they could show.

Year 1 on an Autumn Walk, by Mrs Harrison

Date: 16th Sep 2016 @ 9:26pm

Year 1 have begun learning about the weather changes and signs of Autumn. We went on an Autumn walk to find out how many of these signs could be found in our school woods. The explorers managed to find most of the Autumn signs although they did notice that there were not many piles of leaves yet!

The class also enjoyed developing their ability to read numbers up to 100 whilst developing their turn taking and gamesmanship skills playing snakes and ladders. I wonder how many numbers they can read on signs, packaging and at home over the weekend?

Our classroom was transformed into a circus! There was music, incense, fairy lights, popcorn, candyfloss, images of the ‘Big Top’, acrobats, clowns, a white rabbit coming out of a top hat, a ringmaster, clowns on stilts and a lot more! In groups we wrote down what we could see, hear, smell and taste using expanded noun phrases.

 

 

First week in year 3, by Miss Jones

Date: 14th Sep 2016 @ 8:37pm

What a busy week it has been!

The children have settled into year 3 really well and have enjoyed their first week in KS2. They have had a treasure hunt around the classroom to explore their new environment. They also enjoyed having a 'walk and talk' summer holiday catch up. On Thursday we had an 'all about me' theme to the day and learnt a lot about one another in literacy, maths and circle time. We have also been very creative and have had a go at ink blowing and self-portrait sketching. The children's art work will go on display soon so keep your eyes peeled ...

Y1 SRE WEEK, by Miss Lynch

Date: 14th Jul 2016 @ 11:46am

The children enjoyed taking part in a range of circle time activities this week. The biggest thing the children learned was how to identify the gender of a new born baby girl and a new born baby boy. Over half of the class used the baby's face and hair style to decide on the gender. After lots of discussion the children learned that we look at the baby's private parts to decide. This led nicely on to what the children call their own private parts. After that, the children learned the scientifc names for these private parts. As you can imagine, there were lots of laughs and giggles throughout this particular lesson!

Areas covered:

Feelings

People who help us

How to keep clean

Naming private parts

Famillies
