Mr Atkinson’s comment:
We had a fantastic end to the week with the Colour Run! The pupils all had a great time and enjoyed cheering on the other classes as they passed by.
Literacy and English
In our Writing lesson we created a persuasive letter to the council discussing the issue of littering in our local community and what we can do to stop it. Some of the skills we used to make compelling arguments included; persuasive sentence starters, facts and statistics to support our opinions.
Numeracy and Maths
Some of us had a great time using a variety of measuring jugs to help become more confident with reading scales and making estimations. We have also been learning how to multiply 3 digits numbers by a single digit, identify different coins and solve puzzles involving square and triangular numbers.
Health and Wellbeing
For our first athletics lesson we all took part in races!
This week we explored our feelings and identified which feelings are comfortable or make us feel uncomfortable. We shared how we react when we experience a certain emotion and we listed people who can help us cope with the more challenging feelings. Afterwards, we used some of the strategies that we had discussed to resolve scenarios.
IDL – Olympics and Euros 2024
We have been researching a venue of our choice that will be used either in the Olympics or Euros. We recorded some key information such as their design, what they will be used for and what they are made from. Then we constructed models of the venues with Kapla and applied our knowledge of the Microbits to programme floodlights to go inside our stadiums!
Science and Outdoor Learning
To help us further understand habitats and our surrounding environments we have been learning about food chains. We discovered that animals adapt to their environments and what carnivores, herbivores and omnivores, consumers and producers are. We then went out to the woodland area to see if we could identify a food chain that we could draw and label in class.
