Open Evening 2017
The year 6 have made maths game for us to play, and they showed us how to play them.
We have been sketching. There was so much concentration even though it was hot outside. Lovely work from everyone.
Infant Music Festival
We had fun teaching children in Forest and Orchard classes our favourite song in Spanish.
We have been learning about what life was like when our parents and grandparents were young. We played games that they may have played such as ‘In and out the Dusty Bluebells’ and ‘Hopscotch’.
Paradise Park
In RE we have been looking at the religion ISLAM. In today’s RE session we looked at the five pillars of Islam and focused on the pillar ‘Prayer’.
We looked at poems by Spike Milligan. Children had the chance to rehearse and perform the poems. We looked at two poems ‘The Land of the Bumbly Boo’ and ‘The Ning Nang Nong’.
Art
We looked at Andy Goldsworthy’s natural art pieces. They had the opportunity to go outside and in groups collect natural objects such as leaves, twigs and pebbles. They then worked together in their groups and created a similar piece to Andy Goldsworthy’s.
Finding out the time
We watched an animated story called the ‘Dream Giver’ and wrote the start of a story. We have included description in our writing. Please read our excerpts. |

Maths - Problem Solving
We have been solving challenging problems using different apparatus to help us. We must make sure we explain our reasoning.
Including Mrs Creasey's maths group
Maths - Measuring
In class we have been enjoying measuring length, weight and capacity. We sorted containers that we “full”, “half full”, “nearly full” and “nearly empty”. We used measuring jugs to fill containers with the right amount of millilitres and then compared them.
