This week in Class 4

We have been very busy this week exploring 2d and 3d shapes, making patterns and sorting shapes. We have been working with our partners and supporting one another when learning about the features of non-chronological reports, reading texts and discussing them.

We have been busy in our Reception classes building, creating and making:

  • A home for the animals
  • A tent to sleep in
  • Mending the climbing frame
  • “We are fixers”
  • Helping each other
  • Building a boat to live in
  • “A house for my chickens”
  • ‘A house of sticks”
  • “It’s my house”
  • The Three Little Pigs house of straw
  • “My house of sticks for the Three Little Pigs”
  • “A kingdom house in London”
  • ‘A triangle house”
  • Paper people
  • “A BIG HOUSE!”
I wonder what else we can make over the coming days?

Today in class 6 we were learning about food chains. The children worked in collaborative groups to sort pictures to make food chains. It was lovely to see them all engaged in their learning.

Making predictions

18th January 2022Nicola Robson

As part of our new expedition we set up an experiment to see how different objects react to being submerged in water. We added tissues, a swim nappy, a plastic toy and a packet of crisp to bowls of water and will keep observing them over the next few weeks!


Making Jellyfish

18th January 2022Nicola Robson

As part of our immersion we all made Jellyfish. The children were preserving parrots and concentrating crocodiles as some found the threading quite challenging.
