We loved having fun on the inflatable today! The sunshine came out for the occasion too.

Publishing our writing
We are really enjoying publishing our persuasive letters and can’t wait to get these sent to Mrs Atherton.
Guitar celebrations in year 5
We were all so proud of our year 5 children as they showcased their incredible guitar skills to the rest of the school and to parents and carers. Thank you to everyone that joined us 🙂
MI finish their sketching
We are all so proud of our finished art work 🙂 There was some great sketching techniques used.
Sweet Potato and Polenta Bake
We continued with our DT case study by cooking a sweet potato and polenta bake. This dish required us to use a wider range of skills such as slicing, chopping, grating, mixing, reducing liquids and then assembling the dish in a similar way to how you’d make a lasagna.
When the dish was cooked, there were lots of reluctant children who would try it. However, with some encouragement they tried a little. Surprisingly, some of them absolutely loved it to the point they crowded round the dish with a spoon.
During this case study, it’s required children to push themselves outside their comfort zone and for some they have found foods they like that they’d have been unwilling to try before.
Baking
Last week, we baked some buns as part of our DT case study. We had to collect the ingredients we needed before weighing everything out. We worked in small groups ensuring that everyone was able to participate. This allowed us to learn the skills that we’ll need for the final product.
Picnic under the chapatti moon
To finish our story we enjoyed a picnic watching the chapatti moon, just like in the story. We have loved writing this story because it has had so much action in. Finally, Mrs Kapoor got her chapatti!
Transition Day fun!
What a lovely day we’ve had in Crew Godley, we’ve shown off our talents in arithmetic and expedition followed by lots of Crew building challenges. We’ve developed our resilience and collaboration skills whilst competing with each other to make a variety of items including a boat that had to float and a turtle with a shell. It was all great fun!
We also created our own crew signs to create a montage – we’ll continue with these into the new year.
Exploring Hinduism
Today we have started our third case study, Hinduism. We have explored the key facts, did you know that hinduism is the worlds oldest religion? Most Hindu’s live in India, in Doncaster there are approximately 1,294 Hindu’s. We discovered that Hinduism is third largest religion worldwide, after Christianity and Islam. To finish off our first lesson today we carried out a Kahoot quiz to assess our understanding, needless to say, Leo had remembered lots of key facts!
