It’s Maths Week in England and we wanted to celebrate! We worked in our crews to solve a series of mathematical problems and challenges to reveal a secret code to enable us to escape!
They were tricky – we had to be resilient and hard working but together we succeeded and all managed to ‘escape’!
In EYFS today we have been learning about Remembrance Day, we have been thinking about the brave soldiers who protect our country to keep us all safe. We have printed poppies, made edible poppy biscuits and delivered them as a random act of kindness to all of the grown ups in school who help keep us safe everyday. We also surprised the staff at the Junior School with a biscuit too! We have coloured poppies, drawn our own poppies and even attempted to write the sounds we hear in words.
Each child then drew around their hand to create one huge poppy that will be displayed in the hall for everyone to see.
Well done Year Two Crew!
We’ve had fun this week studying the work of the illustrator Quentin Blake. Our challenge has been to draw ourselves in his style. We’ve worked hard to improve our drafts, critiquing our work with our friends.
Watch this space for our finished work!
What a busy week we have had in Class 1. We loved the Halloween disco, and dressed in our most spooky outfits! We have enjoyed building and creating and have been learning all about triangles. We have been lost in books and have spent lots of time sorting, matching and counting in our maths area. We wonder what next week will bring…
We had a great time in Nursery dressing up and taking part in fun activities and games.
We have had such a great first few days back after our half term break. We have had a fabulous few spooky days, a Halloween disco, a new spooky Maths area to create spells – we needed to count ingredients into little cauldrons! We have enjoyed reading Room On The Broom and The Gruffalo!
Class five are showing their resilience this afternoon. They have been studying the art work of Quentin Blake and are now drawing themselves in the same style. I can’t wait to see the finished product!
We started our school week with a Halloween disco and had a great time when dancing and singing songs together. This week we look at the artwork of Quentin Blake and learn to draw characters in his style. On Wednesday we had our school vistor who trained us to be a First Air Super Stars!
