  Thu 29 Feb 2024 Mrs Hudson and Miss Stigant

  Year 3 were very lucky this week as they had a special visitor in class who taught them all about the Stone Age. The children absolutely loved the whole session and completed a range of activities including cave drawings, exploring the tools which they used and being around a campfire. 

  

• Year 1 are Mathematicians!

  Thu 29 Feb 2024

  Year 1 have really impressed this week with their maths skills. They have been using a number line to solve missing number calculations and practising their place value knowledge to use tens and ones to make 2 digit numbers. Also in computing this week the children have been looking at labelling, matching and grouping objects. 

  

• Year 6 are exploring Shakespeare

  Tue 27 Feb 2024

  This half term we are looking at the famous Shakespeare play, ‘Macbeth’. We began by looking at images of the play and where it was set. We then had to create a set of predictions to work out what happens in the story.

   

  Today we looked at the main parts of the story and mapped them out. We explored some of the main quotes from the story and discussed their meaning.

  

• Year 2 love the library!

• Year 4 are artists

  Thu 08 Feb 2024 Mrs Phelan and Mr Pierre-Wilkinson

  Year 4 have begun their new art topic by exploring the work of Karla Schuster. Her work focuses on collage techniques and in particular animals. This week we have explored a variety of techniques that we could incorporate into our own pieces as well as sketching some animal prints. Today we have used cold water paste and marbling to create different textures for our end piece.  Well done year 4!
