Week beginning - Monday 14th March 2022


This week the children designed teapot invitations for their Mummy's and Nanny's to invite them to Afternoon Tea at school next week to celebrate Mothers Day!



















 

We have been thinking about our environment this week and ways that we can help our local community. The class chose to write letters to the church, asking them for donations of litter picking equipment so that we can go litter picking in the village. 


















Last week we learnt about 2D shapes, this week we have been learning about 3D shapes. Today we have been sorting the shapes using a Venn Diagram. The children worked very hard to use the correct mathematical terminology. 
















In Science we are learning about Personal Hygiene. We have planned an experiment to see whether all drinks have a negative impact on our teeth. The children made predictions for our big question first. I then showed them the resources they had available and asked them to plan an experiment. We shared our ideas before recording what we were going to do. The children identified the Scientific Enquiry type to be Fair Testing and the Scientific Skills, Observing and Concluding. Make sure you read new weeks blog to see our experiment taking place!
















Last week the children designed a dinosaur egg, this week the children have begun paper mache-ing!

After half term we will be learning about the features of a Kenning poem and planning and writing our own.

 Last week in science we were identifying the parts of a plant. The child have been able to recall the names of the parts of a plant well. The children used different materials to represent the different parts of a plant. On completion of their model, the children labelled their creations! This week the children have been learning about the functions of the parts of a plant, they recorded these in a table.  We have begun our athletics learning and preparation for sports day. This week the children recalled and added to their knowledge of long jump. We discussed the technique in detail and it was modelled to the children before having a go themselves. The children measured their own jumps using the metre sticks. The children are showing a greater understanding and confidence of measuring length this year.  Pancake making - Group 2 Our maths learning has been focused around measuring this week (frustratingly Miss Blake forgot to take any pictures earlier this week!). We began by recappin

This week we enjoyed being Geographers! Using a map of the school the children negotiated their way round and decided whether different features within the school grounds were human or physical. We shared a Powerpoint presentation to remind ourselves of what human and physical features were, along with the examples on the Powerpoint, the children were able to give their own examples too. The children used the map that I had made for them but were very resourceful in adding additional diagrams and labels to their maps.
