Year One have been investigating plants as part of their learning in science 🪴 They had to consider what plants they might see in the local environment and why and then create a tally chart to record what they found. The discussion about what they saw, where and why was fantastic! We hardly saw any […]
Over the past few weeks we have been learning about Autumn. We have completed lots of different art activities including creating our own Autumn wreaths. We thought carefully about the different colours that we can see in the Autumn and used these to design the wreaths. We think they are beautiful!
In PE we have been thinking about Autumn and the seasons 🍂 As part of our dance, we had to be falling leaves! 🍁 Can you see how we are twisting and turning our bodies as the wind blows us to the ground? 💨 Amazing moves Year One!
Last Friday, 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 varies […]
This week Reception have been reading the story ‘Whatever Next’ about a little bear that makes his own rocket and flies into space. As well as acting out the story, we have been recreating some of the objects that you might see in space, such as the planets. We used marbling ink to create the […]
Year Six have been working hard on classification grids. After organising animals based on common, observable characteristics, then then worked on classifying themselves by writing their own classification grid in chalk on the playground.
This week we have been investigating which material would be best for the Princess’s bed in the Princess and the Pea story. She had had a terrible night sleep due to sleeping on a hard pea. We tested paper towels, cotton wool, bubble wrap, felt and sponge. A lot of the children predicted that the […]
In Science this week, we used a ‘special’ app on the iPad to take X-rays of different body parts. The children were amazed by how many bones there are in a human body. After the children were given a bag of bones and had to use all of them to create a skeleton.
Year two have been taking their science learning outdoors this week. Their topic is Living Things and their Habitats. The children went out to search for things they considered living. We then discussed what non-living things were and things that were dead. These were all in our woodland habitat, a new piece of vocabulary for […]
Within class this week, we have continued to explore our new science unit of forces. We have begun to look closely at gravity and the significant scientist Isaac Newton. Here are a selection of images of the children preparing our investigation where we are going to take precise measurements using force metres.
