In English we studied World War poetry.
In class we discussed a range of poems and began to look for new words and phrases.
We discussed how the author has used words to fire the readers imagination and interest.
The children did very well at this and responded with some thought provoking answers.
to commemorate the centenary of the end of World War 1 the children participated in painting their ‘poppies’ for a whole school display. Thank you for sending in the bottles.
In Re we participated in a range of activities to celebrate and understand the Festival of Diwali.
We ended our activities with a Line of Lights prayer service.
This week we began our new Science topic, Forces and Magnets.
The children were very excited to use a range of construction kits, play dough and Lego to experiment with the forces of push and pull.
Ask them to explain if these forces need contact, the direction they can move in and how they affect objects. (Hopefully they can tell you!)
During R-Time the children worked in pairs on a shared activity. This activity encouraged patience, teamwork, listening skills and respect.
Well done to the children this week, they have worked incredibly hard.
A reminder Monday is Odd Sock Day to mark the beginning of Anti Bullying Week.
Friday is Children in Need, children are asked to come to school spotty, this can be clothes or make up. We ask for a £1 donation.
See you Monday
Mrs K McGovern
