Digital Technologies

We have been learning how to use Botley, a wee robot as well as a programmable mouse.  If you want to work Botley or the mice, you need to be able to program them.  We had to input an algorithm (a fancy word for instructions) to make them go. Max said, ‘I really enjoyed playing with the mouse!’  Noah M said, ‘I loved to use the algorithm with Botley.’  Georgia told us that Botley was the cutest little robot she had ever met!  Aiden said, ‘I really wanted to use Botley, but was happy with mice!’

Remembrance Day – 11th November 2021

We made Poppy wreaths using crepe paper and cardboard to celebrate Remembrance Day.  We gave these to Tesco at the Peel Centre to decorate their store.  We also used our best handwriting to write out the poem ‘In Flanders Fields’  Did you see our work in Tesco?

Outdoor Learning

First of all we were introduced to the loppers and secateurs and taught how to use them sensibly and safely.  Then we had to go and collect 4 sticks and a measuring tape to measure the sticks to 1m long.  We used the cutting tools to cut them.  Finally, we used the sticks to create a 1 metre square.
