Time is flying by in the
nursery. This week we have been all things spiders. The children
have been singing along to the nursery rhyme Incy Wincy Spider. During PE
we pretended to be spiders, moving along the benches. We also used the
crash mats to do head over heels which was super fun. It was good to see
so many parents for nursery consultations. Also the children loved the
Tesco Cheese and Chive dip that we had with breadsticks for snack in case
you’re stuck for food ideas this was a firm favourite. Next week for our
phonics we will be moving on to T and sharing the story The Tiger Who Came
To Tea.
Reception
Firstly
thank you to all the parents that've managed to pop along to parent meetings
and I'm sure you will all agree that the Reception children have been working
extremely hard since they started in September and have settled back after
Christmas well and are full steam ahead in there learning.
This
week in Reception we have continued our learning on Dogger. The children have
been busy and having a go at writing our own stories and drawing our own story
maps. The children have shown that they are very clever this week by
remembering the golden rules when writing sentences.
Next
week we are starting a new topic on Space, with our story book being 'Whatever
Next' .Please check your children's homework book for their new homework and
don't forget to start filling in those WOW stars!!
Have
a lovely weekend

1B
Hello
everybody,
So
sorry 1B haven’t blogged for a while, but we are all excited to share our
learning with you this week.
We
have been so busy; we have really enjoyed starting our new topic in Talk for
Writing- The 3 Little Pigs. We have achieved so much in one week. We already
know the story really well, we have sequenced and written our own stories,
written character descriptions using Word, had a go at building the pig’s
houses to make a model map and role played the story adding in our own ideas.
In
Maths we have been counting in 10’s , grouping them, thinking about how many
lots of , recording repeated add number sentences and using these to begin to
learn about multiplication.
We
have had a fun and enjoyable week; here are some of the activities that the
children have particularly enjoyed.
Jake-
I have enjoyed counting in 10’s because I like it.
Ailbhe-
It was fun doing the 3 Little Pig role plays.
Camren-
Singing the Count by 5s song is great we enjoy singing it.
Toby-
I liked making the brick houses and I did some at home yesterday.
Evie-
I liked doing dancing in PE because I like the song “Tiger Feet”.
Martha-
I really enjoyed writing the 3 Little Pigs because I enjoy writing.
Milly-
I quite enjoyed making the 3 Little pigs houses and using the Beebots.

Have
a great weekend.

This week we have been looking at column addition and subtraction
and linking it to money. In English we have been writing character descriptions
to add to our own version of the Demon Headmaster. In Science we have tested
the temperature around the room and also tested snow as it was melting. For
Science we made pie charts and also put our melting snow temperatures on a line
graph. We have also painted our own interpretation of The Demon Headmaster.
5J
This week in 5J we have continued to add detail to settings,
including similes and metaphors in our writing. We have learned that we
also need to include a range of connectives and punctuation to improve the
standard of our writing.
In maths we have learned about time – big units of time, such
weeks, months, years, decades etc. We have looked at the 24 hour clock, timetables
and schedules. Looking out for 24 hour times will be a big help in
reinforcing this at home. During our PE sessions, our successful learners
became teachers to share their ball skills with others – this was a valuable
and enjoyable experience. However, the highlight of the week was being
able to use the iPad in class to explore the apps relating to space – being
able to find out which constellations are where was quite exciting.
5J Even if you have lost your moon diary, keep looking at the shape
of the moon each night; it will help your learning next week.
Year 6
Well, Year Six have had a fantastic week working on their topic of
dragons. The art work and writing has been amazing and we have had so much fun
with this exciting topic.Well done to you all.
