3 Blue turn into business men and women!

23rd May 2024ashleigh clark

Today in LMTW we have been learning about data inputting and why it is important in a business. We first started off with the question, ‘What is the most popular colour in 3 Blue?’ then we went and collected the data from the 28 children (and two teachers) in our class through a tally chart… which connects our learning to maths! We then inputted our data onto a spreadsheet and also created a bar chart to show us the results. From our results, we concluded that blue was the most popular colour in our class!

1 Red are engineers of the future!

We have been learning about the importance of solar power and how we can use it to help with our daily lives. We decided to make a solar oven and cook biscuits. We followed the instructions very carefully and worked well as part of a team. We put our ovens in the sun and waited for our chocolate topping to melt. The chocolate had started to melt and we discussed that if it had been in the sun all day it would have worked even better. They tasted delicious!

A Baptism in 1 Red

21st May 2024L Chisholm

During RE day we have been looking at the Christian celebration surrounding a childs birth. We learned about what special items are used during a baptism, who attends and their role and where they go to hold a baptism. We then took turns in baptising our own baby and said the words ‘In the name of the Father, Son, and the holy spirit’ as we used the blessed water. We found out that that Christians use water as a symbol of new rebirth as it represents washing away any sins.

The light (and dark) are strong with 1 Red.

In our Learning Means the World theme of ‘Light Up The World’ we have been looking at what objects and materials give us light. We looked at a selection of pictures then worked together to decide if they give us a natural light or a man made light. We the looked at using shadows and shading in our art lesson and created some lovely pictures using these light and dark effects.

Amazing arrays!

13th May 2024L Chisholm

In maths this week we are looking at arrays and how they can help us with our group counting. We looked at the rows and columns and how we can use these to write a number sentence. We had a selection of arrays and worked together to write the column addition and the row addition.

Design and Technology Dynamos in Year 1!

13th May 2024L Chisholm

In our Learning Means The World theme, ‘Light Up The World’ we have been looking at the sun and creating leaflets and posters of the rules we need to follow in order to be safe when we are out in the sun. We have found out that suncream, glasses, hat and t-shirts are very important. We then designed our own split pin lever card to show the sun and how we keep ourselves safe

2 Blue- Rainforest Art Explorers!

10th May 2024L Martin

2 Blue have had a fantastic time exploreing the Sunderland Winter Garder rainforest through art.

They sketched in the forest, looking carefully at the different types of leaves, and then created some master pieces in the museum classroom using different types and shades of pastels.

We even had time to sqeeze in scavenger hunt around the rest of the museum!

The children were a credit to the school with their excellent manners and behaviour.
