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.
Reception had an amazing time at their Christmas party and had a very special visitor!
Year 2’s new theme in Learning Means the World is all about Paddington’s Passport. After discovering that Paddington was born in Peru we decided to do some research about this South American country that none of us have visited.
2 Red worked as a team to create their very own display about Peru and it’s capital city Lima. It’s full of interesting facts and photographs and currently takes pride of place on our wall.
1 Red have hit the ground running this week by coming back to school energised and ready to learn. Our new theme is ‘Never Eat Shredded Wheat’ and within this theme we are looking at map reading and using a compass to find directions. In Maths we have been looking at making larger numbers by thinking how many 10’s are in the number and how many ones. In our English we are looking at questioning words and how we use them and what replies they generate. We have had a brilliant first week back.
