The last few Autumn activities and then we have been dipping a toe into Christmas!
This half term our children have completed some amazing homework, showing a real commitment to their own learning. Well done year 4!
As part of our ‘Come Fly With Me: Africa” theme we have been learning about different African dishes. This afternoon, we created a cous cous dish.
A snowy surprise this morning! So we decided to investigate, build and sledge! A fabulous day of creating snowmen, snow angels, sledging and investigating melting snow!❄️ ⛄️ ❤️
In Learning Means the World ‘Come Fly with me Arctic Circle’ we have been looking at the arctic habitat which is known as a tundra. The children learnt that the arctic tundra is cold and often made up of sea and snow. This week we have been focusing on the design and technology element of the curriculum. The children all drew their own tundras then created an animal slider to move on it. If it was a land animal it was on the snow if it was a sea animal it was in the water. The children all did an amazing job and had great fun designing and making them.
The half term in PE, we are looking at gymnastics. This week, we looked at how to make our bodies narrow so we can move under and over various equipment. We learned that in order for our bodies to be narrow, our legs and feet need to be together and our arms can either be by our sides or above our heads. We had lots of fun and especially liked performing the narrow jumps off of the small podium.
In Maths 4 Red have been using bar modelling and practical resources to solve missing number problems.
Today the children re-enacted what life was like in the early days of The Benin Kingdom. They each formed villages and then traded items with other villages in the class. By trading, the children realised that by pooling resources with other villagers, they were able to prosper. This is how the Benin Kingdom was formed.
This week Reception have been all things pumpkin as we have been using the story Pumpkin Soup in English . We investigated, counted, painted and created so much pumpkin themed learning! We also talked about Remembrance Day and created poppies for our tree⭐️❤️⭐️
These are the Year 5 and 6 School Sports Leaders for Hebburn Lakes Primary School. They are learning how to support all of the children in Physical Education (PE) and Physical Activity and will be completing a series of tasks throughout the year to enhance our leadership. The first session was the launch day where the children found out what they will be doing, the rules involved and their first task for this half term. They also participated in a bunch of activities which involved resilience, communication and team work which are the foundations to being a good leader.
