Our art this term is all about line and pattern. We explored different types of line and repeated our favourite experiments to create a whole class piece of work. 

We had a fantastic wellbeing day at St Andrew’s. We met Steel from Gladiators who told us how he stays mentally strong and positive. It gave us lots of motivation to always try our best! 

We have been working hard in Maths exploring part whole models and using them to write number sentences! 

We had great fun today being creative at the Lego workshop.

Many thanks to Friends of Mary Howard! 

We linked our work in English and Design Technology to help Mrs Wardale make pumpkin soup. We chopped the vegetables and did some taste tests! Yum! 

In Science we investigated our sense of smell. We were given some picture clues but had to guess what was inside each cup! 

Today we worked outside in the playground. In Geography we have been looking at maps and how symbols help us to find places. We created our own symbols for each area of the playground. Super teamwork! 

We have started off the term looking at Traditional Tales. Year 1 have been working on constructing sentences with capital letters and full stops.

Some fantastic independent work this week! 

Reception have been busy using their phonics knowledge to segment and blend CVC words with the initial sounds we have explored so far! Fantastic work! 

We had a fantastic Science lesson today investigating our sense of taste. We compared sweet, sour, salty and bitter foods. Marshmallows were our favourite! There were some interesting facial expressions when we tasted lemon! 

Our first visit of the year to the Library Bus!
We can change our books every two weeks and had great fun choosing today.

We had a wonderful time in our outdoor area exploring some new equipment to make our own water channels. Some fantastic teamwork and lots of sharing ideas to make the water flow the way we wanted it to!
