Reception's Trip to Ash End Farm
12 Jun

Reception really enjoyed their first ever school trip to Ash End House Children's Farm. When we arrived at the farm, we were greeted by a farmer who took us on a tour. We were lucky enough to see lots of different animals and we even got to help the farmers with some of their jobs, such as feeding the animals and collecting a fresh egg to take home. The children enjoyed learning about each of the animals at the farm and singing songs about the animals.

Reception - Superheroes
31 May

Over the past few weeks, Reception have been busy designing and making their own superhero accessories, ready to showcase them in a superhero exhibition. In preparation for building their accessories, the children created design sheets, drawing their accessories and labelling the features that they may have. The children had lots of creative ideas, such as freeze buttons, lasers and web shooters, to name a few. Once the designs were complete, it was time to build the superhero accessories.

Year 3 Round Up Summer 1 Week 5
19 May

Year 3 had the famous "pink headphones" out again today, to launch our science topic...PLANTS :) The children get amazingly absorbed and it's the perfect opportunity to use their previous learning from KS1. We were able to recall the main factors needed to grow plants and could work out the 7 life process from the clues given. The children then worked with their partners to find out the functions of: roots, stem, leaves and flower. We began our own version of a warning story this week and the teachers can't wait to see how the children build the drama and tension.

Reception have really enjoyed preparing for the Coronation of King Charles III. We started the week with a visit from Paddington Bear. Paddington wanted to visit some London Landmarks and we learnt about all of the places that we wanted to visit, including Buckingham Palace and Westminster Abbey. We looked at pictures of these landmarks and found them using Google Earth.

Year 3 Round Up Summer Week 3
5 May

This has been a short but action packed week. The children have been furthering their understanding of fractions by using multiplication and division to find equivalent fractions, and comparing fractions with common denominators. Using their most persuasive techniques, they've each completed their final draft of leaflet to persuade someone to visit Birmingham - they've used exaggerated adjectives, conjunctions to explain and add detail and a range of sentence types to engage the reader. Honestly, we don't know how you say no to them at home!
