1 Red are making music

9th February 2023L Chisholm

Unity In The Community is a lovely theme which teaches us all about our surrounding areas and to look at them in different ways.  We have been looking at not taking our lovely area for granted and to think about it with positivity.  We had a look at some very boring signs that we often see in the area around us and we decided to allocate each sign a sound.  After a while we realised that we had become composers and had created a musical story.  We then used 2Simple to generate our story and listened to our creations.  Look out Top Of The Pops!

1 Red are safe on the roads

9th February 2023L Chisholm

This week in our ‘Unity In The Community’ theme, we have been looking at the importance of crossing the road safely.  We looked at the Green Cross Code and worked with our partners to design our own posters and discuss what is right and wrong about certain scenarios that we have witnessed both in the community and on the class videos.

School Council and Eco Warriors Bird Feeder Project

7th February 2023K Richardson

Last week the School Council and Eco Warriors worked together on a bird feeder project. We had a visit from Groundworks who talked to the children about visiting the tip, why you would go and what the children had dropped off.  We then discussed how we deal with rubbish and recycling and the importance of 3 R’s –  Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
We learned the importance of keeping the earth happy and the damage of climate change.  The teams made bird feeders from recyclable material and then we hung them around our gardens!  The two groups worked so well together and were a credit to us all.

 

1 Red back to back drawing and brilliant counting.

7th February 2023L Chisholm

This week in our Maths we have been matching numerals to its picture form then trying our best to write the number word.  This has been very tricky, especially the writing of the word in its number form but we didn’t give up.  We then used our great communication and language skills to explain to our partner what picture we were looking at.  Our partner had to listen very carefully and draw what we had said, sound easy? Well we did it back to back so we really had to concentrate on our partners words and directions.  It was geat fun!

I Blue can spot the difference.

6th February 2023L Chisholm

Today in our Learning Means the World lesson we worked with our partner to spot the difference between 2 pictures of a classroom.  We used great communication skills and team work in order to find all the differences.  We realised how hard it was to find them all if we didn’t concentrate on each section and communicate appropriately with our partner.  We took turns to tell each other what we could see and shared our results with the class.
