P5mw Learn it! Log it! Blog it!

Hello everyone.

We have had a busy past few weeks.

We have been working on our enterprise which is felt Christmas Trees. We stitched them, glued them and placed them into a wooden log base. We hope to see you at the fayre later this afternoon.

We have been creating shelves for the elves. We worked in small groups of 3 or 4s to create a bridge or shelf made from lollipop stick, tubes, string, tape and elastic bands. We enjoyed this as part of our STEAM focus.

P5mw Learn it! Log it! Blog it!

P5mw children have been learning lots in our different lessons and we have been practicing for our Children In Need Assembly (Friday 18th November 2022)

We have been baking and learning financial education skills as part of our financial education focus. We have been deciding how much ingredients cost for our Pudsey Cakes as well as deciding how much to charge. Additionally, we have been discussing as a class how much each guess for Guess the Sweets in the Jar should be. We have been working very well with p5hp to go round the different classes and advertise our Children in Need activities.

In numeracy, we have been exploring the x5,x6 and x7 tables. By the end of our term, we hope to recall most, or all, of our times tables instantly when asked. We will be practicing this regularly and it would be great if this was repeated at home. We have taken part in station-based activities to achieve the most from our learning.

We also have been making some Halloween decorations which we have been enjoying. We made creative bats and well done to Konstancja for her winning pumpkin design!

Note for Friday: please practice your lines if you have a speaking part as well as practice any songs.
