• First Week Round-Up in Room 24

  Last week we combined our art skills with our maths knowledge as we created geometric trees to increase what we know on angles. We found this funner and more creative than just writing in jotters. In music we learned how to find the beat in different songs and keep it throughout. We listened very carefully for what the video said and repeated it back in time with the music. In literacy we started a new book called Tribes.  Everybody is already really enjoying the book and we are eager to read the next part every time. We are excited to …

  Room 23s blog    This week in room 23 we have been learning about shapes. We learned about 3D shapes nets, and about what their names are, also about the faces, edges, and vertices.   We are almost finished with our book Natasha’s will and it has been very exciting to learn about the Russian revolution.   We have been listening to different types of music to find out what type of music we enjoy and why.   We have been learning about scratch, and we made jumping game on it.   By Tabitha and Ananya

  What a busy first week back we have had! 2026 is off to a wonderful start in Room 1! We have been learning new maths games to help us with our number sense, started a small block of tennis activities in P.E. and been working on our reading skills with some paired reading. During our play sessions a few pupils began making ice-cream shops. This sparked inspiration within the classroom which has led to a fantastic whole class project of creating our own city. We have been learning about what you find in a city in comparison to the countryside …

• Welcome Back to P1/2!

  Welcome back after the holidays! It has been so lovely to see all the children again. They have settled back into school routines really well and have been very busy with their learning this week. In Literacy, we have been consolidating all previously taught sounds and common words. We also practised predicting in our reading books, using clues such as the title and the picture on the front cover to help us guess what might happen in the story. In Numeracy, we were introduced to subtraction. We explored numbers 1 and 2 less than and learned that when we take …

  We’ve had a great first week back after the Christmas holidays and it’s been lovely to see the children return with big smiles and lots of enthusiasm. They’ve settled back into school really well and have quickly got back into their daily routines. In Literacy, we have been consolidating the sounds we learnt before Christmas. Using active activities, the children have been revisiting these sounds in a fun and engaging way, therefore helping to build their confidence. Our work in Maths has continued to focus on our measurement topic. This week, the children explored height, weight and capacity, using practical, …
