Outdoor learning today was a bit chilly and blustery, but we still managed to take part in lots of activities to work on our mental maths and ordering skills and also creating, identifying and describing acute, right, obtuse and straight angles.
Here are some photos of our challenge shapes. We had to make shapes with all right angles, all acute angles, all obtuse angles then one with a mix of different kinds of angles. There was lots of team discussion going on as we worked out which shapes fitted into which categories.
Todays’s outdoor learning session was really productive with lots of team work and mental maths practise helping us complete a variety of challenges. It was dry but really quite chilly so it was great to see everyone remembered warm outdoor clothes.
We started off on the journey out to the pitch searching for triangular shaped objects. It’s amazing how many you can find when you really look! We then gathered round the base in the shape of a triangle before playing some ball games to practise number bonds to ten.
After that it was time to use some sticks, shells, stones, cones and cards to solve problems and also create some number rockets. Here are some photos of our work today.
Well today we had our first outdoor learning session with Mrs Kelly and what a great time we had. We learned all about being safe outside, our responsibilities and how to respond in an emergency. We explored our school grounds and also had fun taking part in some of games which help us learn and let us practise lots of things we have already learned too.
Fortunately the weather was kind to us today with no rain. Let’s hope it stays that way every Monday till June for our outdoor learning sessions!
Here are are some photographs of us outside today.
The class enjoyed creating intricate designs on Christmas baubles last week. They thought carefully about how to create and colour different patterns. Check out some of the finished designs.
During our Science lessons this term we looked into how natural resources and materials are being used and the importance of their conservation. We have discussed the impact of our actions on the environment and decided to make posters encouraging others to take different steps to help out planet.
This term, we also worked with magnets, investigating which objects are magnetic and how magnetic field works. We conducted a series of challenges to see how magnets exert a non-contact force and then designed, constructed and played our own games using magnets. It was lots of fun!
Next, we made mind maps of what Energy is and talked about different types of Energy. We talked about heat, sound, light and electrical energy and we are able to identify examples of different sources of energy.
