Buddy Bench
School Council have been busy over the last few weeks thinking of ways to improve school. One idea we had was to have Buddy Benches- Thank you to Jackson who has designed a brilliant poster for our benches.
Remember to use them if you are in need of a friend.
Walter Tull
In History this week, we have learnt about a WWI officer called Walter Tull. We used historical sources to deduce information about his early life and to find out about his involvement in World War I.
Knitting in Class 4
In Class 4 we have been leaning to ‘cast on’ our stitches. We are becoming really confident with this skill. Maybe you could ask your child to show you how to do it?
Houses and Homes Past and Present/Then and Now
In history today we looked at houses and homes comparing the similarities and differences between Victorian homes and our homes today. The children sorted pictures into past and present and then they matched the rooms by observing which features were similar.
Diary Writing…..
In Class 4 we have been creating our own character for our War Diaries. We will be writing from the perspective of Simon Bauer a boy evacuated from Germany during WW2. These pages give you a little more information about him. Keeping looking out as some of his diary entries will follow…
Mastering Maths!!!!!
I am so pleased with the Year 6 children’s maths. They have shown the skills of perseverance, determination and resilience to master the skills of Long Multiplication and Division. Well done!
Phases of the moon
This afternoon Class 4 learnt about the 8 phases of the moon. We then recreated these using Oreos. It was delicious as well as informative!
