This week the P3’s got to meet the Busby robot dash. Dash can only work if we use code to tell him what to do so we used our coding skills to get him moving about.

Next week the p3’s will show their learning and teach the p2’s how to code him.

Yesterday morning we were so lucky to have a visit from one of the workers at Warburtons. We learnt all about healthy eating and how bread is made.

Then we got to make our own sandwiches and eat them, including the crusts!!!

We have taken part in 2 HWB activities today.

First Mrs Dallas came into the class today and she did a “bounce back” lesson with each. We learnt how to think of and use different strategies to make us feel better if we are having a bad day. WE suggested lots of great ideas such as eating a bit of our favourite food, having a cuddly from a family member or a friend, just simply smiling at someone. We will remember these and put them into action next time we have a bad day which happens to us all at times.

After lunch we took part in the Fearless Resilience Workshop. We had an amazing time and we loved all the games and activities that we took part in. We learnt new breathing techniques and fun games to help us over come tough times.

Yesterday in the creative zone, the children were tasked with designing their own plane. The children were asked not to put their names on the pictures so we could complete a fair vote at the end of the day to choose our favourite 3 designs.

At the end of the day, we voted and we choose our favourite designs.

This morning the children have been able to put their designs into real life by first of all building their own planes in a group and then putting their designs on the places. The children have had to work together as a team to build the plans, follow tricky instructions and communicate with each other on the design the process. The girls even made their own paint in the creative zone today using flour to paint their plane.

A fantastic effort by all!!!

Following a successful visit to the library on Monday,  we now how a whole collection of books linked to our class topic on Natural Disasters to enjoy reading over the next few weeks.

In the afternoon yesterday, we continued our learning about the artist Piet Mondrain. We created our own pictures of animals (or pokemon!) and using rulers we drew shapes inside and coloured them in the colours used by Piet. The pictures looked fantastic! Tomorrow we will be applying our learning of this artist and creating images during ICT!

Wow what a fantastic morning!!! We had our learning workshop this morning and we LOVED seeing all the family members joining in with our learning through play! Can we do it again please?!?!

This week in the creative zone you will find us making lots of play dough. We are able to follow instructions and make our own without any help from the teachers!

This morning we were so lucky to have a visit from members of the construction team who are building the new nursery! We were taught all about the building process and the importance of staying safe when near a building site. Two very special builders: Honor and Ivan came along too and helped with our learning.
