Building Bridges

This week, Year 3 have had fun being engineers.  Firstly, they learnt about the different types of bridges. Then, they designed their own bridges. Next, they used recycled materials to build their own bridge with a partner. Finally, we tested the bridges – would a toy car roll across the bridge and would they support a 1kg weight?

 

A new chair for Baby Bear!

Year 1 read the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and knew straight away that they wanted to create a new chair for Baby Bear! They planned out their designs and had great fun using junk modelling materials to make them. They are looking forward to evaluating their chairs tomorrow. Well done Year 1!

 

Alien Invasion!

Year 2 have been making moving aliens during DT Week. The children have enjoyed designing their aliens, creating them using cardboard and finding ways to join parts together. I’m sure you’ll agree, they are out of this world!

Kandinsky

Year 1 have been busy using their artistic skills to create a calendar in the style of ‘Wassily Kandinsky’. They used a range of colours to show different emotions. Well done Year 1!

Report Writing

Year 2 have been busy writing non-chronological reports on pirates. They published their writing on large pieces of paper after looking at other examples of reports. Well done, Year 2!

Can you feel the force?

This afternoon, Year 3 have been having a great time rolling cars down ramps. As well as playing with cars, they were learning all about forces and, in particular, friction. Our Teamwork value was very much on display as the children worked in small groups. Well done, everyone!

 

Wonderful Writing

The children in Year 1 have been busy developing their writing skills. They are working hard to use verbs, adjectives and even adverbs in their sentences. Amazing!

Phonics

Year 2 were in the hall this morning being very active to learn their phonics. There was great teamwork and enjoyment on show – well done, everyone!
