Holly Hill Primary and Nursery School
Summer 1
Dungeons and Dragons
This half term, our theme is dungeons and dragons. We are reading 'George and the Dragon' and 'How to Train your Dragon' and re-writing our own version.
In art, we are making a clay relief of a castle, looking carefully at the design features and detail of a castle. In computing, we will be making a dragon animation, learning to add detail frame by frame.
Our science work is about plants and we are going to be planting out the greenhouse to help us learn about the function and importance of plants.
Week Beginning 22nd May 2023
Art: Kingfisher have put all their skills together to make a clay castle relief 🏰

🏅 Congratulations to Charlie who won the Cross Country 🏃🏽 🥇
A great start to P.E. this week, thinking about how we run and taking small steps vs longer strides in running. We took it in turns to coach a partner and make sure they were using their arms and legs correctly.
