3NL Maths

In 3NL we have been learning about different types of angles...



3NL - RE Diwali

To celebrate the end of term and our RE topic,where we have been learning about Hinduism,3NL had a Diwali celebration!


First we set about getting rid of all the old and we gave the classroom a good 'Spring Clean.'


Next  the children brought special items from home which we used to create a class shrine encompassing all the senses.

Immanuel's mum had kindly made us some Indian sweets which we exchanged with each other ,
as is the Hindu custom,
to ensure we felt
sweet thoughts about each other.

Finally we used clay to design and create Diwali lamps.

1MS - Science



Year 1 will be observing the seasonal changes on a tree.


The following picture is for autumn.


How will the tree look in winter?



1MS - Maths





The children had to search the classroom and find items shorter and longer than the 1 metre ruler.


(We wrote the names of the objects longer than 1 metre on posit it notes as we realised we couldn't fit very long items in our hoop!)


The children completed the task very well!

4JI cityscapes!

In 4JI today, we created beautiful cityscapes using nothing but black paper, chalk and our own fingers!

As you can see the children worked extremely hard to create colourful pieces of work, they look fantastic! 




1MS - Computing



Year 1 came across some odd looking bees.


What were they?


The 'odd bees' were Beebots. The children had to input instructions into the Beebot in order for the Beebot to move.


FORWARD   BACKWARDS   LEFT    RIGHT


Also, Miss Shah challenged the children to make the Beebot move towards and then touch a sharpener.


The children did exceptionally well and were very careful about the instructions they gave the Beebot. Well Done!






5AK -Science - Levers!

As part of our Forces topic we investigated levers, and the relationship between force, mass and distance!

Year 5 - Mr Barwick's Brazilian Adventures!



Yesterday afternoon, Mr Barwick came in and spoke to us about his experiences of Brazil. He told us some great facts and we were fascinated about the amount of coffee it produces, as well as how long it takes some goods to to arrive here (28 days by cargo ship) from Brazil.
