WBD – KS1 🐻

27th February 2023Lauren Marsh

In KS1 for world book day we are asking children to bring in their favourite teddy bear, children will be joining in with a range of activities with their teddies all day ending with a teddy bears picnic where favourite books can be shared and yummy snacks can be eaten.

Rather than it just being a Y1 reading cafe this Thursday it will be a KS1 reading cafe, Y2 parents are also invited to come and read with their children at 2:45pm. Go to your child’s classroom door to be let in.

Demonstration comprehension in MI

27th February 2023Stacey McClare

Today we developed our knowledge on how to answer 2 and 3 mark questions that refer to mood and atmosphere. We used APE to support our answers and worked collaboratively to structure our points. Finally we worked independently then allowed our partners to offer critique on our answers. A really great lesson MI 🙂

Beautiful work

Last week, we started to write our plot points which were a recount/ description of Martin Luther King’s I have a dream speech. It has been lovely seeing the children’s writing styles and how they’ve been ale to meet their targets.

We have been having a huge focus on productivity as we get the children prepared for when they enter Year 6, however, we’ve talked that yes, we want more writing but it still needs to be of a high quality. This is one such example of where they have produced more but kept the quality in place. This work also screams beautiful work which we have shared in crew as the standard we are aiming for.

Massive Well done to Scarlett for this beautiful piece of writing!

Spider web(xp outdoors)

24th February 2023Tracy Haddock

So this week they’ve been playing spider web. The aim of the game is that they need to imagine the string is an electric wire and if they touch it .It will shock them!😱 Plus if they touch it they have to start again. They can go over and under anyway they want as long as they don’t touch it.The children really enjoyed this challenge.

LKS2 xp outdoors

So this week they have done spider web( they had to get through the wire without touching it) and magical autumn sounds ( they had to use their listening skills to see what they could hear and to see if the sound was loud or quiet. If it was quiet then they would draw the picture small and if it was loud they would draw the picture big).
