No banquets this week but we have been very busy learning. Here are some of the things we've been up to ....
 |
| Squash - developing our hand/eye coordination |
 |
| How long can you balance a squash ball on a racket? |
 |
| Trying to lie down while balancing the ball! |
 |
| A mini squash game in the hall |
 |
| Science - We have been finding out which conditions cress seeds grow best in |
 |
| We watered most of them .. |
 |
| ... except these! |
 |
| Then we placed some in the dark cupboard, |
 |
| some on the window sill in the warm and light. |
 |
| Another set went in the cold (and dark ) fridge. |
 |
| These are our results so far. Can you guess which set is which?
|
Also this week we have been learning the songs for the Music festival and playing instruments. In R.E. we have been looking at special Christian symbols and those that are special to Sikhs. We heard the story about the donkey in the tiger skin which illustrates how it's not what you look like on the outside that is important, but what you are like on the inside and how you behave that matters.
The children have written some wonderful alternative versions of 'The Three Little Pigs' and completed a mid-term assessment in Maths.
Half term maths homework is to look through their maths assessment and have a go at some corrections.
Bug Club books are on Active Learn - please note the Bug Club link no longer works. (log in with Abacus link from class blog)
Have a fantastic half term holiday!
What a thoroughly interesting experiment you carried out with the cress seeds. I can see the happy seeds grew bushy and green and I can see the cup that had bushy cress seeds but we're yellow. I'm guessing they missed a special element to their care. I wonder what it was? Um, maybe light
