• Year 6 are diary writers

  Mon 06 Nov 2023

  This week we are continuing our learning about the Industrial Revolution.  Using our learning from last week, we wrote a diary as if we were a child working in one of the mills during this period of history.
   

  We discussed what the working conditions must have been like in in the factories and the mills, studied the horrendous accidents that occurred there and came up with personal response to these situations. We also looked at creating a balanced view and talked about the positives these children faced against others who lived in that time period.

• Year 4 are Philosophers

  Thu 02 Nov 2023 Mrs Howley

   Year 4 took part in a P4C session (Philosophy for Children) in RE. They thought deeply about why light is so significant in religions and why it is used as a metaphor. They then completed an enquiry sharing their ideas as a community.
  Well done, Year 4! 

  

• Year 2 are reciprocal readers

  Thu 02 Nov 2023 Mrs Pemberton

  This week, we had a special guided reading session with Mrs Howley. We learnt all about ‘clarifying’ and making a picture in our head when we read and we thought of lots of fantastic questions about the text we were reading.
