Caring for our sunflowers!
This morning in XP Outdoors, we planted our sunflowers outside in bigger pots to that they could grow big and strong in the bright sunshine! We carefully took our plants out of their small plant pots, made a small hole in the compost and patted our sunflowers firmly into their new pot. After that, we watered them to make sure they had had a good drink, and now we will keep our fingers crossed that they carry on growing!
Rounders!
In our PE lesson today, we have worked on our batting skills. We made sure we were stood sideways on in front of the bowler. We also made sure we watched the ball so we could time our hit. We continued to work on our underarm throw because this is a super important skill in rounders. We enjoyed playing a mini game of rounders to practice everything we have learnt so far.
Grammar recap
Today the children were recapping on what they’ve learnt so far in grammar.
History
In history today they were looking at the process on how to make chocolate from a cacao bean and then sequencing them in order.
Position and Direction featuring pirates!
Today we put our directions to the test to help some pirates recover their treasure. We used directions such as forwards, backwards, clockwise and anti-clockwise as well as full, half and quarter turns!
Snacks in the Sunshine
The sun was shining so we enjoyed our milk and fruit outside.
We’re looking for a Maths Teacher at XP Doncaster!

What do we know about Jesus?
As part of RE this week, we have started to think about what we know about Jesus. We looked at who he was, what he did (including his main life events) and why he is so important to Christians. Lots of us could remember that he was born in Bethlehem and that the celebration of Christmas celebrates his birth. From the lesson we learnt that he was a great teacher (he taught people about God’s love), he had 12 special friends (his disciples), died on the cross (for his people) and rose from the dead. We also learnt that he was kind and caring and helped many people.
