Today we pretended to be the Big, Bad Wolf and crept quietly to Granny’s house. When we got there her bed was empty, we think she’d been scared by all the howling! Some brave wolf’s even tried out Granny’s bed!!
Sneaking to Granny’s House

Jonah and The Whale 🐳
Today in RE we talked about the Bible and all the different stories. We then watched the story of Jonah and The Whale and made a comic strip to retell the story.
Amazing Artwork in Year 2 👩🏻🎨
Look at our amazing final pieces of Dennis Creffield/Great Fire of London artwork.
What does the Bible teach us about God?
Today in KS1, we explored the bible and why it is important to God. We began by playing ‘spot the bible’. We wondered and noticed which bibles were the same and different and the reasons why this could be.
We then read one of the stories from the bible, ‘Jonah and the Whale’. We worked together to retell the story in mini crews.
Year 2 music – playing the tune to Tony Chestnut on the glockenspiel 🎼 🎶
Today we have taken our song ‘Tony Chestnut’ and looked at how to play a call and response melody on the glockenspiel. We made sure that we knew the sequence of the notes we needed to play and practised repeatedly. Miss McGlone started the piece by playing the ‘call’ part of the melody and we then played the ‘response’ part as a crew. We showed great resilience when practising to perform together and gave critique on what we did well and what we needed to do better next time. The end product sounded amazing and we can’t wait to get even better next week and add in singing whilst we are playing too! ✨
We saw the big, bad wolf!
We went on a walk today to visit Granny and take her a basket of fruit and just like Little Red Riding Hood we met the big, bad wolf hiding in the trees! Afterwards we talked about what we saw and heard in the woods and how we felt when we saw such a ferocious wolf. We can now use all these ideas in our writing tomorrow!
KS1 bake sale 🧁
We would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who helped and supported KS1’s bake sale, we managed to raise £109 for Doncaster Changing Lives. This is just the start of KS1 being heroes in the Carcroft community, look out for what we do next!
Dennis Creffield inspired artwork
As part of our expedition we have been looking at the British artist Dennis Creffield. He used charcoal to draw every cathedral in England. We have been using charcoal to draw our school building. We have also thought lots about re-drafting and how we can use kind critique to help each other improve.
Perfect Pets 🐶🐱🐹🐢🐍🦉
In crew we have been drawing our perfect pets as part of a competition to win some money for school. Some children decided to draw traditional pets, others chose more exotic animals and there was even a hybrid animal in the mix!
Exploring the work of Dennis Creffield 🖼️
Today we explored the work of Dennis Creffield. Dennis was a British Artist, in 1985 he was asked to draw every cathedral in England. To do this he used charcoal. We looked at how charcoal was created which linked to our case study on Firefighters. We began to create artwork in the style of Dennis Creffield by drawing our school. We used Austins butterfly to critique our work and improve it. We can’t wait to share our next draft.
