Today in class we were learning about the way teeth are categorised at the dentist.  Adult teeth are numbered and milk teeth are given letters.  We used dentist mirrors to examine our teeth.

This term P6H has been learning how to programme using Scratch.  We are currently making chase games to play with scoring.

The count down to the Masters is on.  Does Uphall have the next McIlroy?

Today we celebrated World Book Day by coming to school dressed as an emotion or in our pyjamas and onesies.

As the theme of World Book Day this year was ‘Share a Story’ we were invited to bring in our favourite book to share it with the class.  Below is a picture of some of us who shared our favourite books with the class.  We had a nice range of fiction and non-fiction books.

We also took part in a Book Day Masterclass with author Frank Cottrell-Boyce and illustrator Steven Lenton.  The illustrator showed us how to anthropomorphise a dog to show different emotions.  Then we were set a challenge of designing a character – a dog that wants a job!  We had some excellent ideas, from dogs who wanted to be soldiers to wizards!

Lots of learning of Literacy and Numeracy this morning. All in the course of making pancakes! We had to weigh, divide, read instructions and describe the taste of the pancakes. All without setting off the smoke alarm!

Here we are enjoying our treats.
