First Day in 3G
We had so much fun today getting to know each other through lots of different activities.
Wire Horses in Class 6O
As part of our art topic, we studied the work of Leonardo da Vinci who particularly enjoyed sketching horses. We studied the form and shape of his sketches and they recreated them using wire to make wire horse scupltures.
Science in Class 6O
This afternoon we carried out an investigation to answer the following enquiry question: How does the distance from a light source affect the size of a shadow? We used torches, rulers and metre sticks and opaque objects to see what happened to the height of a shadow the further away from the torch it became.
Cooking in 4N!
We had a fantastic day cooking as part of our Design and Technology learning linked to WW2! To start the day, the children thought about the necessity to be hygienic when cooking and what this involves as well as thinking about what equipment they would need. The children then went on to prepare the carrot and beetroot by using a grater carefully. Once they had all of the required equipment and ingredients, they worked in small groups to produce either the carrot cookies or beetroot cake. They followed each step of the recipe carefully, always checking that the quantities they were using were correct. They also made sure that they were sharing and allowing all members of their group to have a turn.
Year 5 Science
As part of our learning on forces, Year 5 have been investigating air resistance by trying to develop the perfect parachute. Luckily all our lego people made it to Earth safely – well done Year 5!
1M Moving pictures
In D&T, 1M have been looking at how we can make pictures move. We have been practicing using split pins and sliders to make different parts of our pictures spin and move up or down or side to side. We had to make a plan for our pictures and use this plan when creating these final pictures. Here is some of our final pictures.
Art in Year 2
We have been exploring sculpture in Year 2, on Friday last week we used clay to create 3 small chocolate sculptures. We used a range of tools and techniques including, squeezing, rolling, pinching, twisting and many more!
1M Drama
Today in English, we were performing the story of Little Red Riding Hood. The children had to think about how each character would talk and act in each scene then perform to their friends in class.
