We're having a science day.

Today we are spending the day carrying out all sorts of experiments. 

This morning we explored different materials and if they change shape when we stretch, twist, bend or shape them?

We squashed the balls and stretched the rubber bands.

We twisted the play dough.

The fabric was very bendy.

We recorded all the results on a table.

We then tested materials to decide which would be best for an umbrella for one of Santa's Elves.

The plastic was the best material because it was strong, waterproof, light and flexible. 

Nativity stars!

What a fantastic nativity, the children were all amazing!

Thank you everyone who came and enjoyed the show, the children really enjoyed seeing such a big audience of family and friends.

Maths games

We've been adding and subtracting 11, 12, 21 and 22 this week. Today we are making our own board games to play while we consolidate our learning.

Nativity sneak preview!

Nativity rehearsals are well underway and we thought you would like a look at our latest run through.

Some stars in the making!

This week we enjoyed a visit from a travelling theatre company with a production of Alice in Wonderland, it was a great show with lots of audience participation!

We carried on our Alice in Wonderland theme back in the classroom by making and then playing a Alice game.

Thank you for all the fantastic Children in Need entries, they made a lovely colourful display.

It's Black History Week

This week we are celebrating Black History Week by learning about Mary Seacole who helped soldiers injured during the war in Crimea.

We are tracing pictures of Mary Seacole to decorate our Mary Seacole story books.

Don't they look great, what a talented class we are!
