Playzone Training

In PE we have been learning how to create games for the younger kids 🏐 We worked in partners and planned the game we would teach. When we got outside we taught our games to a group of our peers. Each group picked there favourite game from their group and the people who made it taught it to the class.

“it was very fun and I enjoyed making our games” – Emmie😀

“I liked how you could be creative and make up your own game!” – Annabelle 😁

Music & Drama Workshop

We all really enjoyed the workshop, now we are excited to start auditions and rehearsals for the show  🎭

Non Renewable & Renewable Energy

We are learning about renewable and non renewable energy. We split into two halves of the class and wrote the advantages and the other dis advantages.

Here are some examples from each side: 

Renewable disadvantage – wind turbines in wind farms are expensive to set up and there is not always enough windy weather.

Renewable advantage – once it is set up it is cheap to run. 

Non-renewable disadvantage – creates pollution and will eventually run out. 

Non-renewable advantage – they are reliable sources of energy meaning that they can provide power whenever it is needed.

Health and Wellbeing

We are learning about the risk and safety of different situations. Some situations were about putting private information online, other ones were about cyber bullying, and spreading fake news these scenarios helped us learn about the safety of ourself and our friends online.

We are looking forward to sharing our learning with others next week when we are going to create a resource to help people stay safe online. 

Learning about the 5 Pillars of Islam

Today we were learning about The 5 Pillars of Islam! We learned that Pillar 1 is called Shahadah, Pillar 2 is called Salat, Pillar 3 is called Zakat,  Pillar 4 is called Swam, and finally Pillar 5 is called Hajj!

Emmie: It was fun and I like learning about it!
Tyler: I enjoyed learning about this!

Kyle: It was very interesting to learn about Islam!

Morning problem solving

This morning we did  some problem solving during maths and at the end we got to make our own problem. We used the strategies of working backwards and reasoning logically.
Here’s some opinions from our class:

Elaine-“It was hard at first until we did a few more”

Reuben-“It was fun and challenging, we got to make our own!”

Joshua-“It is a good way to improve on your problem solving skills.”

Anti Bullying Workshop

Last week we attended an anti-bullying workshop. We learned about the impact that bullying can have on your mental  and physical health. We did some activities and had chats about it.

Elaine and Emmanuel with the rest of the Equalities Group helped to set up the workshop and made it possible, thanks guys!

“We need to be kind and support each other!” Ayat
