We’re using active spelling and digital technology to practise our spelling words

Mistakes are important and help us learn. We sorted the statements into a growth and fixed mindset. Growth mindsets means your brain gets bigger because you learn and get better. Fixed mindset means you get stuck.

Here are some skills we have learned through mistakes.

In Maths we have been learning about weight. We’ve used digital and analogue scales to measure weight.

In the woodlands we’ve been collecting objects and measuring them.

In science we are learning about food chains. We learned about food chains that have a coco bean as a producer. There was some new vocabulary we learned like; predator, prey, consumer and producer.

Here is some our art work to show the food chains.

We learned how easily germs can spread. Gregor made a (vegan) chocolate strawberry treat with black paint on his hands to represent germs, they got everywhere!

We decided to take preventative measures to make sure we do not spread germs. So we:

• washed all the equipment
• washed our hands
• only touched our own food
• cleaned up any mess left behind

We know that germs can make you sick. You can get a sore head, stomach, a fever or a rash from spreading germs. Now we know how to stop germs spreading when preparing food.

In RME we have bee looking at Parables which are Christian stories from the bible. The children have been making the story, and then retelling in the correct order

Creation Story:

The Lost Coin:

The Mustard Seed:

We have been working on identifying common nouns and proper nouns

We presented our ‘Book in a Box’ for our solo talks. The focus of the talk was fluent speaking, appropriate pace, projecting our voice and body language.

What a fantastic effort from P3a, we loved seeing everyone creations and hearing about your favourite books!

Stem-a-story!

We focused on the book ‘There’s no dragon in this story!’. We used BeeBots to travel to different characters in the book.  The task included using directional language and programming the BeeBots.

We were super lucky to have P6 Reading Buddies to introduce our books from the Read Write and Count books.

We used estimation skills to map out the neck, eyes, mouth and face shape in the style of Modigliani

We made outdoor pictures in the style of Modigliani. The neck had to be 30 cm long, we used a ruler to measure and check.
