Children In Need Day

Everyone looked fab for Children in Need Day, and we are very grateful for all of the donations we received for the charity. Thank you!

A Great Term 1!

We have had a great start to our year where the children have made excellent progress in their PSHE unit 'Me and my relationships'! We have used lots of class and partner discussions to debate how different relationships can look, what might be included in a good relationship, how we see other people and what makes a good friend! They are able to understand how others might perceive things said differently and are beginning to problem solve different conflicts calmly! They have also begun to develop their team building skills by creating the biggest tower made out of paper and tape which was very exciting and everyone worked super hard! They have done fantastically so far, and I can see how this is impacting how they treat each other on the playground. 

In English, the children are beginning to improve their writing with the use of speech and exciting adverbs and adjectives to 'level-up' their writing! They have begun to include this in their own writing as well as be able to identify this in other pieces of text!

The children also completed their Space unit this term in science and absolutely loved it! We learnt how the sun casts shadows and how this can change depending on where the object is and how high the sun is in the sky. We made our own sundials to show this and the children kept track of the light through the day by drawing lines throughout the day.
