In LMTW as part of our DT lesson 1 Red lots at various types of buildings and homes in our city. We talked about the different features each building had what its purpose was and what material they were made from. The children then all worked together to use various materials to build different structures, many of the children drew a picture to go with their models.
Today in Math’s we focused on volume, we used various classroom objects to fill and empty different containers and used the associated vocabulary to describe the children’s findings. The children used their prediction skills to say how many objects would fill a container and then compared results.
The children understood that ‘the most important thing we need to know about volume is it is how much space something takes up.’

1 Red in LMTW world were looking at how to be safe in our community especially when out and about near the roads. We talked about the do’s and don’t of road safety and worked together to work out the correct way to cross roads. We watched road safety videos and copied the stop, look and listen signs. The children offered ideas and suggestions of who and what could help us safely cross the roads, for example adults, lollipop persons, zebra crossings and pelican crossings. We finished the session by setting up a road in our classroom, we looked for instruction from the stop and go sign to help us cross the road safely

In 1 Red in LMTW ‘Unity in the Community ‘ we were looking at ‘Bird’s Eye’ views. We looked at various landmarks across the world from this angle and then the children discussed in depth what they could see. We then focused on our local environment and took a look at a birds eye view of our school. There was a lot of discussion and varying opinions about what the children could see. We then took it in turn to label parts of our school as if we were looking down on it.
1 Red have really embraced our current LMTW theme ‘Never Eat Shredded Wheat’. They have shown so much enthusiasm both in and out of school producing some high quality pieces of work. They have taken their homework to the next level by making models, writing setting descriptions, describing the pirates and researching information about various foods animals from around the world. I am sure you’ll agree that their effort is superb!
Today in 1 Red we looked at foods from around the world as part of our LMTW theme ‘Never Eat Shredded Wheat’. The children talked about different cuisines such as, Italian, Indian and Chinese that they had experienced and whether they liked and disliked them. We then focused on different bread from around the world. The children had the opportunity to try various types of bread, guessing where they originated from. They used associated vocabulary to describe the taste and textures. It was definitely a success and some children now have some other foods they are excited to keep trying.
Last week we had a visit from Reverend Ian from St John’s church. He talked about when you get a gift and how you have to look after it. People believe we are a gift from God. It is also believed that light is a gift from God and that it is good. He then discussed light, such as the sun and the moon. How the sun affects seasons and how the moon affects the sea. After that Reverend Ian said that we shine a light and we need to shine our light on others. He asked the children how we could brighten up someone’s day? Some suggestions were play with your friends, share, give someone a hug, make someone laugh and be kind to everyone. Finally, he shared a prayer about our school.
