We’ve had another fun week learning about bees.  We learnt about the importance of pollination and how the process works.  We enjoyed making pipe-cleaner bees and making them fly from flower to flower, and seeing how different colour powder paints were transferred between each of them.

We finished capacity and moved on to angles in maths.  We learnt about right-angles, obtuse and acute angles, as well as the different points on the compass.  We linked our understanding to clocks, thinking about clockwise and anti-clockwise.

In Spanish, we learnt about La Familia.  We were very good at remembering all of the different vocabulary, including whether they were male or female.

Here are some of our highlights:

Layla: I enjoyed making the little bees and dipping them in the flowers.

Matteo: I enjoyed learning about angles (right angles, acute angles and obtuse angles).

Dhanvi: I enjoyed the pollination lesson because it was so fun.

Feranmi: I enjoyed voting in our houses and also enjoyed making the masks.

Well done to Ishani, our hot chocolate winner this week.

We’re all looking forward to our trip on Monday.  Please remember to wear your school jumper, and to bring a packed lunch, drink and snack.  It is forecast to be warm, so please also bring sun cream and a sunhat.  An extra bottle might also be a good option!  There is also the chance of rain, so a light anorak that can be stored in a backpack when not in use would be great too.

Have a lovely weekend everyone,

Mrs Brown
