We have been learning how to combine two groups to find the total. We put two groups together and then counted how many objects we had altogether. 

In PE we have been taking part in dancing. 

This week we loved learning dance moves and adding these to music. We started with warming up to a familiar dance, following the actions as best as we could. We then took some of these moves and made our own sequence. We added music and danced.

This week we have been tracing around different shapes. We have then practised forming the shapes independently. Our pencil grips have improved so much since September and our control with a pencil is always improving. 
Great work Ducklings 

We are beginning to write our names in nursery as we are now able to recognise them. We used our name cards to copy letters from our name. 
Super writing! 

In art this week, we have been studying the artwork of ‘The Shoreditch Sketcher’ as part of our Architecture topic. We then used pencil to observe and draw the London skyline in the style of The Shoreditch Sketcher’.

Take a look at some of the amazing Science work produced by Y6 in Science this week. Y6 were tasked with researching light. Specifically, they were asked to research the question ‘What colour is light?’. They have presented their finding beautifully, drawing upon key scientists like Isaac…

Y6 have started a brand new Maths topic this week which explores Geometry. We began by looking at angles in a right angle, straight line and around a point. Later on in the week, we shall be exploring angles in a triangle and other shapes. Geometry in Y6 can be tricky however Y6 are showing…

This week in maths we have been using positional Language. We moved the teddy to different positions and we will be looking at using this language within our play. 
 

We focused on ‘in front, behind, on top, next to’.  

Take a look at some super investigating we’ve been doing in Science recently! Yesterday, we investigated shadows, proving that shadows are a similar shape to the object that cast them! Today, we’ve learnt all about refraction and used water, straws and other objects to see how refraction creates…

This week in Grammar we have focussed on identifying the different types of word classes. We enjoyed identifying these in our independent writes using our IPADS!

This week in Science we have had a look at our experiment to analyse the rate of evaporation of different types of liquids at room temperature. We predicted that the beaker with the lid would have the most amount of evaporation because the lid would create more heat. However our experiment showed…

Carrying on with our work from last week, this week Y5 have done a range of role play activities to make their characters come alive. This helped the children really understand the characters they are going to be writing about in ways such as how they talk, how they interact with others and how…
