LKS2 Recount Writing
This week, Y3/4 have been writing recounts based on the Disney short animation ’Lava’. All the children have worked super hard to write their recounts, including using amazing adjectives, onomatopoeia and time adverbials. It has been lovely to see how creative our children have been with their writing and how supportive they have been with each other to create lovely recounts.
Arithmetic whizzes!
I am so impressed that 8 children got 17/17 on our arithmetic test! Well done guys, keep up the hard work! 🙌🏼
Fun outside! ☀️💦🚜🪣🧗♀️
As always, we have LOVED being outside in provision. We’ve been climbing, painting with water, playing in the water tray, blowing bubbles in the water and playing with our construction toys. Another fun filled week!
We’re on the move 🚗🚌🚀
There’s been lots of exciting activities happening in provision down in EYFS linked to our Summer expedition.
Box modelling has been popular this week with lots of us deciding to make buses, cars and spaceships! Carsen and Arya worked extremely well together to make a spaceship complete with rocket launchers and safety cables to keep the astronauts safe. Alyssa was very proud of her creation and loved the shiny metal details she had added to it. Max and Rose used their teamwork skills to decorate their vehicle making sure that they listened well to each other and talked through where to put everything. Anastasia and Harlow did a great job of adding extra features to their car and showed fantastic HOWLs by asking Lizzie if she wanted to help by adding features of her own. Great work Crew McGlone! ⭐️💕
An engineer in the making? 🏎️
Wade has been very busy making lots of different things in our construction area this week but his racing car blew me away! Wade explained that his car only had 2 wheels because it moved SO fast that if there were any more they would not all touch the ground at the same time. He also said that the car moved fast because it has a rocket on the top that blasts out fire and it shoots down the road! You never know, Wade might be a future racing car engineer! 🏎️
We are constructors! 👷🏼♀️👷🏻♂️
We have been extremely busy this week using our maths and problem solving skills to build towers, castles and even villages! At times, we have worked with lots of our friends to construct different things which means we have been using and building on our teamwork skills too! We’ve drawn roads, made car parks, built walls… there’s no limit to our imaginations!
We are geographers 🌏🌍🌎
Today we explored human and physical features of the UK, we looked at landmarks significant to King Charles III and compared the features. Leon’s knowledge was fantastic and he was able to clearly articulate which aspects were human or physical features. Zach also explained physical features were formed by nature, sometimes humans couldn’t control nature and disasters occurred creating new physical features such as an undersea volcano.
Scotty’s Heroes
This week we had the opportunity to take part in Scotty’s Heroes due to year 6 completing sats.
Children spent the session working collaboratively and on their communication skills. Well done to Alicia who was star of the lesson. 🌟
Vocabulary building
In writing, we have been working on some planning to support us with our plot points when we start writing. We have generated ambitious vocabulary and spoke about the importance of using words that we know the meaning of. This allows us to magpie ideas and use language we’d expect to see in year 5.
