As part of our Learning Means The World theme, Paddington’s Passport, 2 Purple made marmalade sandwiches. We all had a try of them and even though they weren’t to everyone’s taste everyone had a try. We then wrote instructions so that we know how to make them even better next time.
Some of our Year 3 children attended the South Tyneside Multi-Skills Festival at Temple Park this week. The children took part in events such as football shooting, basketball dribbling and throwing & catching. The children had a great experience and won two of the events – the target practice and the football shooting. Well done everyone – it was a real privilege to take you along and your behaviour was exemplary.
We are very proud of our work and achievements.
A snapshot of the amazing work and effort this week from 7 Red ….well done!
This week in our theme of ‘Never Eat Shredded Wheat’ we have been looking at maps and how to read them. We have been giving each other directions to find places on a map and we know the difference between human and physical geographical features. We even created our own maps and matching key. We then thought about the sounds that each symbol on our key could make and we composed our own geographical music score!
We have been looking at numbers 0 to 5. Our jobs included comparing, recognising the numbers, number bonds, 1 more 1 less, is it equal? Who has the most and who has the least? We have used lots of equipment to support our learning.
In science this week, Year 4 looked at the effect of the sea on Marsden rock. We learned about how erosion effects the land and saw how our coastline is constantly changing. To experience how this happens, we used soil to represent the land and sand to represent the cliffs and the beach, we then pored water over the land and saw how easily it got washed away.
We even saw videos of the landslide at Marsden in 2021 and the sink hole that has appeared in the last few years.
Key Stage Two performed beautifully at St John’s church on Friday – well done everyone!
An extra special thank you to all of the children with speaking parts – it’s not always easy to stand up in front of a church full of people – but you did it and you should be proud.
Thank you to all of the parents and carers who came to support our children, we hope you enjoyed it.
