AUTUMN 2 SPELLINGS

We are now focusing on our next wordless book ‘QUEST’ following on from our ‘Journey’ story

We had a fantastic time this morning trampolining. We tried bouncing on our feet, knees, bottoms, doing twirls. Look at us go!

We had another fantastic D&T session, this week we practised making a hot air balloon lever and explored wheels and axels in preparation for our creations over the next few weeks

For No Pens Wednesday, we had a focus on oracy and had lots of discussion predicting what we thought would happen in our new ‘QUEST’ story

Another fabulous reading breakfast, thank you for joining us🙂

Our first book this half term is 'The Journey'

We would all like to say a huge thank you for supporting us during our Winter Warmer and helping to raise funds for us to enhance the children’s learning in KS1

D&T - Investigating sliders and making our own. We added a strip of paper and cut two slits to test out two different sliders before making our own moving picture using the cut method.

Science - we have been investigating properties of materials and discussing the material objects are made from and the properties different materials may have.

D&T - Exploring mechanisms and finding our own within the classroom

English - We have been role playing a key part of the story when the girl discovers a river and creates her own way over. We used our imaginations to act out different scenarios and how we would cross the bridge if we had a magic pen.

Science - we have been looking at materials and what they are. The children enjoyed labelling the different objects in the classroom with the different materials
