A huge thank you to Lewis’ dad who came in and performed for us. The children absolutely loved the electric guitar! 🎸 I think we have some future rockstars in year one and two!

I’m fearing for my job after our lesson this morning!

Not only did the children complete their division work, and achieve their ME. They explained their reasoning to the whole class.

I’m super impressed Class 5 xx

This week our musician is Jazz singer, Ella Fitzgerald.

Enjoy,

This afternoon, as part of our music case study, we have been lucky enough to give the children the most incredible experience. We have had a visit from one of our fantastic parents, Mr Lamb – who just so happens to be a very talented Opera Singer.

He shared with the children his life as a singer, taught us some vocal exercises, talked about singing all over the world and performed a piece from Carmen for us.

The children and staff are feeling very lucky to have had such a magical experience as part of our expedition.

Class Five have been busy being scientists this morning. We have been thinking about the human life cycle – some of us even challenged ourselves to compare the human life cycle to other living things.

Great job Class Five,

This morning in our expedition session we were thinking about the difference between the things we need to survive and this things we might want but don’t actually need to survive. I was very impressed with the mature and sensible conversations.

Well done class five xx

I just wanted to share this photograph I took on Friday and forgot to share. We have planted some beans in our window greenhouse – we have been carefully observing them over the past week to see how they are changing and growing. It’s lovely to see the children leading their own learning and checking in on our experiment over the day without any input from the grown ups.

The future of science is safe with this budding group of scientists.

This week we have gone for the famous composer, John Williams. We have picked five songs for our play list – but we think as you look at home you will find hundreds more that we could have used!

Enjoy, Mrs Parsons xx
