During this weeks multicultural focus we have had a go at speaking Italian. We shared our feelings on Italian and then used a video to help us say foods. I have to say I was rather impressed with some of their pronunciation.
Multicultural week – Italy
This week we have been learning about Italy with it being multicultural week. This also fits in with our expedition because it’s allowed us to explore the country in more detail and discover things such as their food and language.
We really enjoyed learning about the famous dances which believe it or not came about because of someone being bitten by a tarantula.
Case Study reflection
Children took part in a kahoot quiz to allow them an opportunity to showcase what they had learned during their case study. Lovely to see they have retained some of the facts etc about where the Romans came from
Scotty’s – team work
In Scotties we were working on our listening skills and our ability to work with a partner. It was essential that we listened to instructions so that we could keep each other safe. Lots of sore muscles the following day after all those squats.
Super Readers
Well done to the following children who consistently read at home. In some cases they are reading every single night. It would be lovely to see some more reading records next week. 📖
Reading game
This morning we have tried another game during reading called Rally Table. Children worked in partners to take it in turns to record information we’ve learned during our reading lessons.
Describing the Big, Bad Wolf
Today we were thinking about the Big, Bad Wolf and what he looked like. We started off by making split pin wolves and thought about the different parts of the wolf. We then went on a hunt around the room and looked at pictures of real wolves to generate some vocabulary for our writing tomorrow.

Crew MW’s School Trip!
What a wonderful day we’ve had at Austerfield! We started our day with an exciting bus journey where we drove through Doncaster and saw lots of new and exciting buildings including the Minster and train station and we even saw a police van!
When we got to Austerfield, we went on an adventure in the woods and collected lots of natural resources to create some artwork with in the afternoon. We explored the hills, the sand, the muddy puddles and the Christmas trees and we found lots of toadstools, berries and pine cones!
Then we enjoyed some delicious dinner!
After lunch, we used our natural resources to create some artwork and to make potions!
We had a lovely day, but we’re definitely ready for a sleep now!
