We have had a very busy last week of term. In DT the children have been testing out the best way to make chairs. They made cylinders and tested their strength. They then worked either in groups or individually to make a chair for baby bear. On Friday afternoon we went down to the Reception classroom to test these out! Reception have been learning about Goldilocks and the Three Bears so this linked really well. The children were able to understand how engineers have to work on their designs and make improvements. The showed great resilience!
In PE the children have had a term of ball skills.
In Forest school the children were learning about the moon and the special moon that occured this week. I wonder if they can remember any of the facts?
In Science the children had a three part lesson. Firstly they set up and observation overtime. They needed to see what happened to the foam soap. This is fascinating to watch.
Then the children needed to find the best material for Incredibles to wear
And finally the children learnt more about waterproof and tested out how to make paper waterproof using wax crayons.
The children finished off yesterday by visiting the library and listening to the audio headsets to participate in some drama related to our Geography topic of the UK.
Home learning for the half term: We have sent home the assembly lines, please can you help your child to learn these as best as they can. I will be there to support them with lines during the assembly. Some children also have spellings.
We hope you have an amazing half term and we will see you on Tuesday 25th February. Our assembly is on the 'break the rules day' on Friday 28th February at 9.15am.
