We have been using the Bluebots to direct around the maps and along the story of Whatever Next. We discussed the steps needed to get to the next picture of the story and programmed the Bluebot to do this. Great team work by all children.

Marvin Mouse Flies to the Moon
Today we each made a Marvin Mouse and flew him as far as we could using our milk bottle rocket. Here we are with the mice that we made. We launched the mice, measured how far they travelled and recorded our results.
Science - Rocket Mice / Llygod Rocket Gwyddoniaeth
We have been using our knowledge learned so far about Space to make Rocket Mice. We found out that if we ‘hit, squeeze, push’ the carton harder, then the mice will travel further because of the air from the carton. The mice fly up and then gravity brought them back down. We measured the distance using metre rulers and lego blocks. We discussed the distance travelled and compared whose mice travelled the furthest.
Problem Solving\ Datrys Problemau
We used our mathematical problem solving skills to solve a problem where we used our building skills to build houses in different ways. There always had to be two bricks (rooms) on the bottom and the same number of bricks each time.
History Detectives!
We enjoyed spending a lovely afternoon at St. Edward’s Church being ‘History Detectives’. We investigated and recorded data from the headstones and we even had the opportunity to look at some of the church records from over 300 years ago!
Mosaics
Year 2 children have been creative this week whilst working with Jody McPartlin to create our whole-school values mosaic.
Fy Nheulu / My Family
Children in Year One have been creating sentences about their families. They used their knowledge of Welsh phonics (Tric a Chlic) to read the captions to place in the correct order to ensure the sentence made sense.
Reception children have been practising their oracy and painting skills to paint their families. They all confidently named the people in their families; mam – mum, tad/dad – dad, chwaer – sister, brawd – brother.

Outdoor Learning
Today we played leaf snap. We collected leaves and then used our observation skills to shout snap when we saw similarities.
