Today we developed our basketball skills by dribbling the ball through the cones. Everyone is trying really hard to think about their next steps to improve their performance. Well done !

For our Cosmic Yoga session today, we had a colourful Trolls adventure as an antidote to the damp, foggy and miserable weather outside. Our yoga skills are developing and flexibility is improving every week. Today’s yoga was fast-paced and everyone kept up with the moves very well. You could always try some yoga at home using the Cosmic Yoga site.

This afternoon we were learning some of the background to the First World War and how the poppy became a symbol of Remembrance.

After writing Bonfire and Firework acrostic poems and working with coordinates this morning, it was time for some science this afternoon. The instructions are below and you could have a go at this experiment at home. I think that I put too much food colouring into the oil and it turned out to look more like a volcano lava lamp rather than trails of fireworks, but hey, that’s Science, you never know exactly what’s going to happen!😅

Have a great weekend, take care and stay safe!😊

These are the poses that we chose to represent the action of a firework.

To develop our skill in using coordinates, today we were practising plotting the coordinates to create a firework picture. At times it was tricky to follow the lines to mark the correct point, but we made a good attempt at following the instructions. Don’t they look great !

Have a happy, fun and safe Bonfire Night!

Look at us hard at work today organising our notes for our Firework Safety Leaflet. We saw an excellent video which gave us ideas for some of the important facts that we needed to include. We all checked our next steps so that we know what to do to achieve success. I am really looking forward to reading them.

Here are our leaflets from last week relating to Black History Month. 

We started off the morning by learning some basic French phrases and we will be using them in our daily morning routines.

These are photos from Cosmic yoga yesterday, which had a firework theme and introduced us to Cracker the dragon!

This afternoon we were practising our basketball 🏀 skills, by travelling and bouncing the ball trying to keep the ball at a steady height. We were able to describe what we did to develop our skills and how this improved our performance.
