Welcome to our Class Blog. Our teacher is Mrs Henry :)
Today we came into the class and saw this amazing feast! We read the story Elf Road and described what might be on the table at a feast. We had to use adjectives and commas to write our super sentences.
Ruby – We had lots of fun writing about these amazing things.
Charlotte – We had a sheet of colour adjectives to help us.
Today, we were doing Numeracy for outdoor learning. We had to collect leaves and other fallen objects to create multiplication arrays.
We made quite a lot of arrays and then we took photos of them.
Each row of the array had to have the same number.
Look at our wonderful work below.
It was very good fun finding the leaves and sticks and stones. Olivia
When we were finding stuff we could use fallen objects so we wouldn’t damage the plants and trees. Brodie
Today we had a Maths/Technology challenge. Who can make the longest paper chain with just 1 sheet of A4 paper?
We tried to think of strategies to make our chains as long as possible.
The winners used the strategy of cutting really thin strips.
Well done everyone.
It was really fun and we used great strategies. Zak
It was fun and hard! Martha
We liked it when we were cutting and gluing. Joshua
Everyone tried their best but there were two winners. Laura
P4c working hard on their reflective reading task maps for the first time! It was challenging but we persevered – well done everyone.
P4c have been learning about the human body. We used our sense of sight to explore the school grounds. We had great fun collecting items around the school to make a natural colour wheel. We discovered lots of red and yellow colours but it was harder to find purples and blues.
We made sure we were being safe, responsible and respectful while we worked in our natural environment.
Look at all these colours!
We enjoyed going to the science garden and the banking. Martha
It was very interesting. Naba
It was fun. Jonathan
It was easy to find different colours. Shayaan
P4 have been working on our coding skills to celebrate National Coding Week.  We used the website code.org. We had to programme some Angry Birds to direct them around a map. We can’t wait to continue our coding next week!
We will shortly be starting some BounceBack lessons that will help us to develop our mental, social and emotional well-being. We used these question bags (pictured below) to discuss what each letter of the BounceBack acronym stands for. The children really enjoyed writing their responses on Post-It notes and adding them to the bags. At the end, each group had to choose the best response to read out to the class.
Here are some of our responses –Â
If you talk to someone you will feel better.
Learn from your mistakes.
Don’t feel afraid to talk to an adult.
Don’t worry over small things, keep things balanced.
You cannot change the past, so think happy thoughts.
Think about how to make it better.
When I fall out, I make up.
Be honest and tell the full story.
Always concentrate on the positive and the good will happen.
Everybody makes mistakes.
We are all good at something.
Say sorry to your friend.
You can read about the BounceBack acronym on the slides in the link below.
