On Tuesday, we continued our learning on forces when we visited the RAF base at Cosford. We completed three activates (Rockets, Rover Release and Asteroid Field) as well as had an informative walk around the museum and airplane hangars. Within our activities we had to think carefully about forces and how they were applied to…
Year One have visited the woods to help with their ordering and counting in Maths. They played hide and seek with numbers and thought of some very clever hiding places (even losing a caterpillars head 🐛 somewhere up there!) Once they found the different numbers they had to sequence them together and practise their counting…
Over the last two weeks, Year Two have been learning about tens and ones in maths. They have used a range of manipulatives to help them partition numbers into tens and ones but also flexibly. Super work!
This week in our science learning we have been measuring forces using Newton metres. We looked closely at the different scales and implemented our number line knowledge effectively to read them with accuracy. As the lesson progressed, we looked closely at the different between mass and weight. We understand that our mass never changes whereas…
Today, we have asked around the classroom to find people’s favourite fruit. We then collected the data and produced a bar chart.
We are working hard at understanding adding fractions. We have used concrete and practical resources to embed our learning. Lots of fun!
Year One have been finding and working with groups in Maths. They began by counting in tens and seeing how this made addition much quicker! They then had to work out whether or not groups were equal – and if they weren’t, make them equal by adding or subtracting until the groups had the same…
This week for the start of our new topic of minibeasts, we have been learning all about bees! We were amazed to find out that they had 5 eyes and that they could smell and taste through their antennae. We have been using our fine motor skills to fill the cells on the flower like…
Year Three have been busy understanding perimeters by using concrete and pictorial resources. They even measured their own tables.
The children have learnt all they will ever need to know about Ancient Egypt! We did an Ancient Egyptian dance for the Pharaohs, handled real Amulets (3,000 years old!) that would have been given to newborn Egyptian babies and tried an Egyptian Breakfast! 🍞 We went back into the classroom to have our Egyptian Breakfast.…
