Last week Nursery enjoyed going on a walk around our local area. We enjoyed looking at the cars on the road and talked about the different vehicles that we could see.

This week, Year 2 are Performers.
Rehearsals are in full swing for the Christmas Production of “It’s a Party!” and Year 2 have been rehearsing their lines and actions for the show. 
They have been rehearsing 3 songs this week and the choreography is looking fabulous! We have been appraising each of the songs in our music lessons discussing the tempo and pitch of each piece. 

In History this half term we have been investigating Alan Turing and L S Lowry. This week we looked at some paintings of Manchester and Salford by Lowry and decided how reliable they were as sources compared to photographs. 

In our computing sessions this term, we are thinking about video production. This week we analysed different videos online and considered what techniques were used.

This week we have been creating firework pictures. We have used a range of tools to create different shapes and effects. 

This week Year 3 enjoyed a breakfast with books with our teachers and grown ups. We had a lovely morning looking at reading together and having a yummy breakfast. 

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.

Last week Nursery enjoyed retelling the story, 'Little Bear' in different ways. We used small world and we also made a large story map outside. Well done Nursery!
