Drama
This week we listened to the story of the birth of Jesus Christ and then in small groups acted out the story.
We used props to represent the baby Jesus and practised using our voice, facial expression and body language to represent how the different characters were feeling.
Can you guess who was the sheep in this scene, who was the angel and who was the proud father?
Going Digital
As well as acting out the Christmas story we completed a scene of the Nativity using stop frame animation. We did this with Mrs Buntin.
Alexis – I enjoyed this.
Colin – We learnt how to move the figures a little bit each time.
Jaxson – Then we took 50 million photographs.
Anna – Then you put the photographs together to make a video and narrators record a message over it.
Christmas Lunch
One highlight of the week this week was the Christmas lunch.
Bella- My favourite part of lunch was macaroni cheese and ice-cream!
Jaxson – It was nice to see Joy.
Sophie S – I liked the Christmas music at lunch.
Numeracy
This week we practised formal methods of subtraction using columns.
Lily-Elen – I am more confident at subtraction.
Health
This week we kept running for 5 minutes during P.E.
Piotr – I enjoyed the 5 minute run!
Jaxson – I was proud of everyone for running for 5 minutes.
Hope – I enjoyed football and am more confident at tackling.
Art / Music
Bailey – I enjoyed looking closely at paintings.
This was part of our work with ‘Limelight Music.’ We then went on to listen to a piece of music and draw a picture depending on how we felt about the music. Everyone interpreted the music in a different way.
Topic – Europe
Cameron – I enjoyed playing the online games.
Sara – I didn’t know Russia was so big.
Anna – I learnt that in Lithuania they make beads out of tree sap when it is hard.
