At breaktime today, it SNOWED!!
Animal Man!
We had an AMAZING afternoon with the Animal Man! We loved the different animals and reptiles and were very brave by holding them. Mrs Evans, Mrs Humphries and Miss Sarah were also very brave and faced their fears too.
Science Enrichment Day!
We have been using our investigative and experimental skills to carry out a range of activities. We have had lots of fun!
We have made:
- electrical circuits to make the light bulb light,
- soap bubble prints using paint, washing-up liquid and water,
- erupting volcanoes, using vinegar, washing-up liquid, food colouring and bicarbonate of soda,
- boats out of tin foil and testing to see if they would float or sink,
- growing rainbows with kitchen roll, felt-tip pens, water, paperclips and thread.
Well-being Enrichment Day
We have had an amazing day doing a range of exciting activities!!
We have been very busy baking cakes, painting pictures, riding on the bikes, making masks and doing music and movement in the gym.

We have discussed how we travel to school and how this has an impact on the environment. Please follow the link above to see our class block graph. We discussed the results and ways we could help the environment by possibly walking to school if we live close enough.

Mathematics and Numeracy
- Collect a range of different sized sticks in your garden. Can you measure them in standard units such as centimetres? Can you measure them in non-standard units i.e using pieces of pasta to measure?
- Can you draw around your hand? Pretend it’s the giant’s hand. Estimate how many kidney beans the giant could fit on his hand?
- Can you log on to TTRockstars and practise your times tables?
- Can you practice writing your number formation 1-20?
- Can you learn your number bonds to 10? I.e. 0+10=10, 1+9=10, 2+8=10, 3+7=10, 4+6=10, 5+5=10, 6+4=10 etc.
Language, Literacy and Communication
- Write a diary – think about what it may be like to be a giant for the day. What would you do? Who do you live with? How might being a giant be different to being a child?
- Draw a picture of Jack and colour it in neatly. Think of as many different adjectives (describing words) as you can to describe Jack and write them down. Can you do the same for the giant? How are they similar and how are they different?
- Questionnaire – Think of questions that you would like to ask the giant if you were to meet him. Write each of your questions down or maybe an adult could scribe them for you. Don’t forget to use a capital letter to start your question and a question mark.
Humanities
- Create a map of Jack’s village, where the house was, the market and the beanstalk.
- Could you also create a map for the land of the giant and include your own key features.
Expressive Arts
- Create your own beanstalk. It could be a painting, a collage or even a model. Be as creative as you can!
Health and Well-being
- Play a board game with a member of your family. Maybe you could create your own game?

End of Year Party!
Well, what can I say? The children certainly did come with a smile to our end of term party. The chose to play sports, build dens, make campsites or to just simply chill in the sun!
Thank You Prayers
In Religious Education we have been learning about the importance of Prayers in the Christian Faith.
As a class, we decided to write Thank You Prayers. Here are a small selection;
Sports Day!
What a superb afternoon had by all….
The children demonstrated amazing sportsmanship; clapping, cheering and congratulating for one another. The delicious ice-creams went down a treat too…. yummy!!
Releasing the Butterflies!!
Today, we released our four beautiful butterflies. As we have looked after them so well, they didn’t want to leave us, but soon flew away. We are going to use our good looking eyes to see if we can find them flying around the Quad tomorrow.
Take a look on our Foundation Phase facebook page to see the videos.
