National Maths Week!

The Oak Class have been busy boys this week with all of their maths work. They have really enjoyed the variety of maths activities.

All the boys have been successful learners.

During this activity the boys had to know their directions as they were blind folded and had to listen to instructions very carefully to get to the opposite side carefully.

Blake and Jack had to guide Mr Bark safely to the end using their knowledge of left, right, forwards and backwards.

The boys then had to do a hunt following instructions of how many steps to get to the jigsaw piece and which direction to go.

They worked as a team to put the jigsaw pieces of our class together!

Enjoying the games during counting work.

LS Lowry Houses

The Oak class have been extremely busy in the art room. The boys recreated the famous ‘Berwick upon Tweed’ painting by LS Lowry. They used recycled paper and card and decided to go with a bright colours theme.

We discussed perspective and the clever use of horizon lines in paintings. We also talked about how simplistic yet effective the stick people figures are in the foreground. Super successful learners today.

Wonderful work by some budding young artists!
