This week in Music, we have been learning about notation. We learned the technical names for the notation and how many beats they are. A semibreve is 4 beats, a minim is 2 beats and a crotchet is 1 beat. In groups we created a four bar rhythm with four beats in each bar using glockenspiels and then performed it to the rest of the class. After our performances, we evaluated our compositions.
The Nursery children have had great fun today making moving toys. We drew faces, curled paper, used glue and tape to attach card and craft straws. I think you will all agree that the children have done a fantastic job making our caterpillars!
Year 2 had a fantastic day celebrating World Book Day! It was fun-filled from start to end.
Our Roald Dahl themed activities included creating The BFG’s dream jars, helping the Mugglewump Monkeys get revenge on The Twits, solving Dahl’s maths problems, drawing characters in the style of Quentin Blake, searching for book covers and, of course, hunting for Golden Tickets and more!
We have had an amazing time celebrating World Book Day! We have spent the day doing lots of fun activities around Roald Dahl’s books. We created storyboards about ‘The Magic Finger’, went on a book hunt around the school, created our own ‘Dream Jars’, went on the hunt for a hidden golden ticket and did lots of fun activities in the hall!
1 Red took part in world book day. The school decided to celebrate the work of Roald Dahl and his many brilliantly funny books. We have had lots of fun ranging from dressing up, making BFG dream jars, hunting for golden tickets, book hunt and many more. We have had an amazing day.
Year 5 have thoroughly enjoyed World Book day today, based on the famous author Roald Dahl!
We are blown away by the effort and creativity of the costumes and characters that our children have chosen to be this year, from the BFG, Matilda, Miss Trunchbull, Charlie Bucket, Willy Wonka and more!
We have spent the day doing lots of wonderful book related activities, especially reading (George’s Marvelous Medicine). Year 5 even created their own revolting recipes and mixed up a special concoction that had us “fizzing” with excitement.
We have hunted down Golden Tickets, went on a trail for book covers, played a class quiz and spent our afternoon trawling through Mr Twits’ disgusting spaghetti.
We cannot wait for next year already!
As you know this years World Book Day theme was Ronald Dahl. We have had so much fun today and as you can see we looked amazing doing it!
