Year 3 Round Up Spring 2 Week 3
17 Mar

Next week sees the start of a very special month for our Muslim families when they will be fasting during Ramadan. The children in Year 3 are learning about Islam. So far, they have discovered the 5 pillars and linked them to some of the rituals and ceremonies around the birth of a child. It was fascinating to hear the children draw similarities to occasions in their own faiths and cultures.

Reception - World Book Day
5 Mar

Reception had a brilliant day celebrating World Book Day this week! Lots of us dressed as our favourite characters from the stories that we read at home or wore their favourite pyjamas, just like when they do when they read bedtime stories at home. We enjoyed sharing lots of our favourite stories in class, and lots of children bought their favourite books to school to share with their friends. In the afternoon, we read the story 'Once Upon a Time' by Nick Sharrratt and used the pictures in the book to create our own story.

Reception - Supertato
5 Mar

In our Talk Through Stories sessions this week, Reception have been learning the story 'Supertato' by Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet. In the story, the Evil Pea has escaped from the freezer and is causing chaos and terrorising the other vegetables in the supermarket. We decided to think about ways that we could catch the Evil Pea and restore peace to the supermarket. We had lots of ideas such as creating cages to lock the Evil Pea in and using a net to trap him and then returning him to the freezer.

This week, the children made predictions about the plot, solely from the front cover and blurb.

Reception - Numberblocks Day
27 Feb

Reception have had a brilliant day today as our classroom was transformed into Numberland, the home of the Numberblocks. We took part in lots of different Numberblocks themed activities such as making 'Stampoline' patterns and using our knowledge of number to draw accurate pictures of our favourite Numberblocks and sharing what we know about each of them. We even helped our teachers to stand in the right order using the 'diddly diddly do' rhyme that we learnt from the Numberblocks. Take a look at some of our amazing maths learning.

Reception - Pancake Day
26 Feb

Reception have been very busy learning how to make pancakes in preparation for Pancake Day! We carefully followed the instructions to make some pancakes together and then practised flipping them. We then got to taste the pancakes with different toppings and used our photo cubes to vote for our favourite topping. As you can see, chocolate spread was a very popular choice!

Reception - Kandinsky Art
14 Feb

This week, we have been learning about the artist Wassily Kandinsky. We compared his work to the work of Andy Goldsworthy and Jackson Pollock, who we have previously learnt about at school. We noticed that the colours that Kandinsky used in his paintings were much brighter than those used by Jackson Pollock. Inspired by his work, we decided to make our own pictures, using hearts for Valentine's Day.
