Wow! We have had some amazing creations for our recycling Easter Bonnet competition. The children have really taken on the challenge with such enthusiasm and pride, it’s going to be a difficult job choosing a winner.
Well done everyone who took part.
In 1 Blue, we are going to be writing a set of instructions on how to make porridge to fit with our book ‘Goldilocks and the 3 bears’. We first added the porridge oats into the bowl and added milk. We then gave it a good stir and then put it in the microwave for 3 minutes. The children also know that we needed to let the porridge cook before we ate it because it would burn our tongue. When the porridge was cool, we added our choice of topping (golden syrup, sugar, jam or chocolate spread) and we ate it all up. It was very yummy!
1 Blue had an amazing day for World Book Day. We made Winnie the Pooh honey oat balls, enjoyed some fun activities in the hall and went on a scavenger hunt around school to count how many characters from Winnie the Pooh there were.

The children in 1 Blue have been doing some computing in LMTW. We were working in pairs to compose and decompose structures that we had made with Lego. Each child was given 5 pieces of Lego which they had create a model out of. Then their partner had to follow their algorithm’s to recreate their model and discuss the process they used. We used sequencing vocabulary like first, next and last to help our partner sequence the lego.
This week in 4 Red we have been learning how to use ‘rule of thirds’ in our artwork. We created pieces inspired by Vincent Van Gogh’s Starry Night.

In year one it is our final week of using the text ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ in English, and what better way to end the theme than to make porridge just like the three bears did. Before we could make porridge we had to discuss the steps of making it and write a list of instructions. Once we had formed our instructions we began to make it. The children in turn had the opportunity to add ingredients, mix it, heat it up and then finally had the chance to eat it. The children used some incredible vocabulary to describe the taste and texture of the porridge. It was safe to say that some children didn’t enjoy the experience and some loved it and asked for second helpings.

They have a morning session (10:30 to 13:30) and an afternoon session (2pm to 5pm).
Reception had a fabulous stay and play sessions. Their grown ups came to spend some time joining in with some of the activities the children enjoy in school. They showed them how creative they are, how they are working so hard on their Sounds Write skills, maths and so much more! Well done Reception!
