National Environment Day Poems
It was National Environment Day on Wednesday so, in Beech Class, we read “The Lost Words” by Robert MacFarlane. It is a beautiful book full of “spells” about creatures and plants in the natural world. We analysed the spells and noticed the use of adjectival phrases, similes, metaphors and rhythms. We wrote our own “spells” about creatures and plants that we value in our world.
Sycamore Class Assembly
Sycamore Class performed a fantastic assembly about the Romans in Britain. They did a wonderful job learning their lines and singing two songs.
Africa Talk
Sycamore Class really enjoyed our visit from a man who lives in Kenya. We learnt lots of very interesting facts about volcanoes, particularly Mount Nyiragongo, Gorillas and Warthogs.
Carbon Monoxide Talk
This week, a lady came in to talk about the dangers of carbon monoxide and how to avoid them.
Kenya Talk
This week, all the classes had a talk from a man from Kenya about what it was like to live there.
Habitat Construction
Sycamore Class have been making habitats for a range of different animals, including foxes, hedgehogs and rabbits. They were tasked with ‘selling their habitat’ as if they were estate agents, describing in detail what they had made and explaining their design choices!
Germany Week
The Very Hungry Caterpillar continued his journey around the world this week in Oak Class. This week he visited Germany so we made and ate some black forest gateau! It was delicious!
Spain Week
Oak Class have been learning about different countries and cooking food from each one. So far we have made some pavlova whilst learning about Australia, poutine when learning about Canada. Here are some photos from today’s learning about Spain. We got the chance to make and try some paella.
