Class 1 have had a fantastic week, working really hard with their Missing Star posters - lots of lovely independent writing, including some finger spaces and capital letters too! We have enjoyed sharing some of our favourite stories, voting for the story of the day using our tens frames. We have been getting creative, experimenting with clay, decorating snowflakes and making our winter woodland forest for Church. In maths we have been subitising, using 5 frames, recapping 2D shapes and making our number book. Looking forward to another busy week!
Class 2 I Loved everything at Beamish! The bus ride because I was with my friend. Colouring on the bus with my friend was what I liked best. Making peg dolls at Beamish. Seeing the animals was what I liked best at Beamish. The piglets were so cute. I liked seeing all the old buildings and things at Beamish. Pirate Pete's Christmas games were really funny! The story about the poor tailor and the mice. Having our packed lunches beside the fire. Building houses with toast and icing in D.T. It was great building our houses but very sticky! My best work was in D.T. because our house was strong and didn't fall down! The Daily mile because it keeps me fit!
Class 3 have had a fantastic week. we enjoyed our trip to Beamish, especially the Georgian Christmas where we played traditional games, made peg doll angels and listened to a story. Some of us enjoyed a trip down a mine, explored a pit village and a visited an old school classroom. On Friday, we have enjoyed having a busy Science lesson, where we melted chocolate to investigate melting. We had a cheeky taste of it and melted it in our hands too! We are excited to create our Christingles and have a service to celebrate this.
Class 4 What a very busy week we have had in Class 4. We have been creating a Christmas windowsill decoration to display in Church over the Christmas period. We have been investigating equivalent fractions in Year 6 and in Year 5 we have been investigating square and cube numbers. In Science, we have been testing properties of materials, carrying out experiments to decide on suitable materials and their uses. Everyone, enjoyed being immersed in Christmas spirit at Beamish with Christmas traditions and a WW2 evacuation workshop, bringing learning to life. The children were excellent, when being put through their paces on parade. Lastly, making Christingles is always a favourite for the children, thinking about the meaning of Christmas and spreading a message of hope at this special time. Have a lovely weekend!
