We drew our ideal meal we would make for the tiger. On the creative side we made some tiger faces using colour, eyes and stripes, painted tigers focusing on the features of a tiger and finally we practiced our cutting.
In maths we learnt about the shapes, circle, triangle, square and triangle. We also went on a shape hunt. We also learn about money and played 5 current buns in a bakers shop.

This week in Learning Base 2, the children have been involved in anti-bullying week. They talked about what actions are nice towards other children and how they would like to be treated by others. The children added painted flowers to their cut out handprints and then added words to describe how they could be a good friend to another child.
Class 8's amazing Topic work on Stone Age weapons
Date: 20th Nov 2020 @ 4:42pm
Class 8 have loved learning about Stone Age weapons. The children found out what they used to make the weapons and the different weapons for the different jobs. They worked in teams of 2 to make their own spear, then acted out being hunter gathers like in the Stone Age times. The children really took on the role as you can see from the photographs. Super stars!
Also this week Class 8 listened to Mr Padley's assembly on Anti-bullying. Then we had a PSHE lesson where we talked about the different kinds of bullying and what they should do if they were being bullied or ever saw someone else being bullied. Class 8 then made a poster with the message to everyone young and old. Let's stand together and be United Against Bullying.
Another fabulous week Class 8 with your work in school and at home. Well done!

This week in class two we have been learning about the story 'Owl Babies'. As part of this learning the children all retold the story with their group using masks. They were amazing at remembering what happened in each part. For our table jobs the children sequenced the story, matched the pictures and the words and made their own versions of the books.
In maths we have been learning about the numbers 4 and 5, the children have enjoyed using a five frame to make different amounts. We have also been experimenting with different ways to show the numbers 4 and 5 with shells, numicon, dominoes and the nuumerals.
For our topic learning we have been learning about owls and that they are nocturnal animals, here are some pictures of the owls that we have made in the creative area!

This week we have been doing some great learning about nocturnal animals. We read the story Owl Babies and did some drama outside. We each took on the role of an owl and told the story using words and actions.
In maths we have been looking at the numbers 4 and 5 and looking at different ways of making them. We are learning to recognise what the numbers look like without having to count them and having been spotting them in lots of different ways.
We have also been talking about e-safety and how to stay safe when using the internet.
We are amazing at Design and Technology!

Over the last few weeks we have been using our Moon Buggy design books to design and create our own Moon Buggies. We showed amazing team learning and resilience today when we made our moon buggy designs. Even though it was tricky at times we showed great persistance and made some amazing vehicles ready for our trip to the moon!

This week Year 6 have learnt lots about e safety. We thought about what reliable information is and how we can tell if the information s is true or false. We also thought about keeping ourselves safe and not meeting others online and how if we have any worries we can speak with an adult. We also looked at anti bullying and the difference between bullying and banter. We thought about how banter can turn into bullying.

In Class 12 last week we have been writing our own myths. These have been based on North American stories and we put our own spin on them. We have created stories like how the Rhino got a horn and how the elephant got a trunk.
Mr Padley enjoyed finding out 'How the Baboon got a red bottom' and 'How the Unicorn got wings'

We have been learning about keeping safe when using the internet as part of our E-safety day. We looked at a story about Smartie the Penguin and his new tablet. We thought about the problems that Smartie had whilst playing online including pop up adverts, websites for older children and cyber bullying and what he should do in these situations.
The children made sock puppets of Smartie, film reels of the events in the story and information posters to help other children make the right choices when using the internet.
Below are some examples of the fantastic work they have done which will be added to our new E-Safety display in the computer room.

E-safety
Children are getting online more than ever before which is incredibly positive for their learning and development. However, they are also exposed to certain dangers if the internet is used inappropriately.
To reduce the number of risks, it’s essential that children know how to keep themselves safe online and what to do when something isn’t quite right.

Class 8's learning the week beginning 9th November
Date: 13th Nov 2020 @ 2:15pm
This week Class 8 have been linking their English lessons to their Topic work on the Stone Age. We used props and hooks like a woolly mammoth fur, a camp fire, food, spears, stones for making tools and wild animal footprints. The children acted out what life would be like during the Stone Age times and we brought our story of The Stone Age Boy to life.
In Science we are studing Light and Class 8 made puppets and used torches to make shadows. They also changed the size and shape of the shadows too. I'm sure your child would love to tell you all about it.
A FANTASTIC weeks learning Class 8. We are so proud of your learning and hope you are proud too.
