Golden assembly – outside!
We enjoyed an al fresco assembly today because the hall be being used. We sang and presented our certificates under the trees.
Super homework – show what you know about plants
We had some super creative homework showing what children know about plants. Thank you for all the support over the year doing homework with your children. It really supports and develops their learning.
Living and Learning – Making healthy choices
We talked about healthy choices for different parts of our body and discussed this in our groups. Then, we jotted our ideas down on the figure of a person.
We talked about the link between mental and physical health. We finished off by watching a clip showing how food is made to look better than it really is, and how it gets a makeover to make you want to buy it.
The children were very engaged in this topic.
Scholes Open Gardens – scarecrow competition
We have been supporting the team of volunteers who orgainse Scholes in Bloom. Today is the Open Gardens event and we created some scarecrows in school around this year’s theme, ‘World of Song’. The scarecrows will be displayed again on Britain in Bloom judging day on 19 July.
Science : which seeds will grow?
Last week, we set up a science experiment to find out how seeds grow in different conditions. We predicted what we thought would happen and then observed over the course of the week.
The seeds that were watered (but not too much) and were in the sunlight grew the best. Most of us predicted this!
WOW writing!
We have enjoyed reading Jasper’s Beanstalk recently. We acted it out and re-read it several times to increase our fluency and expression. We then created our own versions, choosing our own characters and deciding what seed they would find.
Luella wrote a superb version about Una finding a rainbow seed. Wow, what a lovely start to your story!
