P.E session with coach Luke
Fantastic p.e session today with Crew MI and Crew Boswell learning more techniques in taekwondo.
Creation of maths anchor charts in MI
We created anchor charts to support us with some of our arithmetic questions 🙂
Learning in provision
Crew Welburn were so excited to see a new addition to our role play today – a supermarket! The children couldn’t wait to get into their choosing time to go and explore and it was definitely the busiest areas of the classroom today! The children showed how well they could share resources, take turns and develop their own story lines in their role play. Some of the children even showed off their writing skills by independently writing a list of items that they wanted to buy from the shop – amazing work Crew Welburn!
The children also used our healthy vegetables to explore different prints in the workshop, and made real Mr Potato Heads out of vegetables while explain what each part represented! Such a fun day for us all!
Significant events
As we continue through our History case study, we started to think about significant events and how these have impacted today’s society.
We started with a silent conversation where children had to think about what the image showed and when in history it took place.
Once we had finished discussing the events and when we thought they happened. It was time to match the image with the statement before putting them in chronological order. Lovely to see that some children already had some prior knowledge of these events such as Titanic, the Queen’s coronation.
Today MI finish PP2
Some great writing in MI 🙂 Such positive attitudes shown throughout this piece of writing. I look forward to reading your final versions after you have edited and redrafted.
Gap filling in arithmetic
Today we looked at and unpicked our last arithmetic paper. After some modelling, we used our purple pen to have another go at the questions we got incorrectly. Some great partner work shown 🙂 MI you really are showing great improvements in arithmetic, keep it up!
Experience lesson in writing
In our writing lesson today we generated a range of adjectives to describe the trees, grass and birds in our picture. We got to feel the grass, bark and twigs and listen to birds tweeting.
PE – Gymnastics
Some great examples of gymnastics during PE.
Children had to jump from the bench and practice using pike, straddle, tuck, star, half turn and full turn after they jumped.
Shadows
During Science, we have been investigating how we get shadows. To achieve green standard, children had to explore if they could prove whether light travels in straight lines or not.
By the end of experiment, children were confident that light travels in straight lines and that we have shadows due to an object blocking the light source.
