Harold came to visit us!

As part of our topic, we looked at African art. We learned African art has lots of repeated patterns, animals and bold colours. We continued some African patterns...

We started science week off with a Mad Science assembly. Next, we investigated the best biscuit for dunking. Our results concluded hot chocolate is the best.

We sequenced the fable The Bridge. Once we’d ordered it, we played a game where we removed one part of the fable and our partner had to work out what was missing.

In Real PE, we created our own balance circuits.

Happy World Book Day!

In science, we’ve been learning about our bodies. We set up an experiment to investigate the impact exercise has on our bodies.

We used Google Earth and Google Maps to create maps of our local area.

We made ‘cloud blowers’ today. We will be writing instructions this week on how to blow the perfect cloud...
