Y4- Crew Mumby/Rayner- Exploring world religions

This week, we had a great session exploring world religions. The children used their detective skills to find out the main beliefs, sacred text, place of worship and symbol for the 5 most widely followed religions. The children fed back their findings with respect and clarity. Well done class!

Sculpture club

This week we made 3D faces and aimed to apply some of the the techniques we learnt over the last couple of weeks. Loops, folds, curls, fringe, arches and tabs! They all got stuck in straight away and I was extremely impressed with all their efforts this week! Well done guys and thank you for having a go and listening so well!

Design a library!

This year, we are working hard to raise money to develop our reading for pleasure library so firstly, we would like to say a huge thank you for all your sponsors from the colour run which will go along way to helping us!

Secondly, we still need your help! We would love for you to help us design the library based on the space we have to use which is the foyer area near the hall.

Please design your ideal library and share your plans with Miss Knowles in person or at [email protected] This is for everyone across school to get involved in! Please send your plans by 7th October.

We can’t wait to see your fantastic ideas which will help us design the perfect library!

Year 4- Crew Mumby- Vocabulary Detectives

Today we used our new reading book, Rose Blanche, to develop our vocabulary skills. Children were tasked with unpicking the illustrations before matching them to key events in the chapter. The level of discussion and eye for detail was impressive- Well done crew!

Y4- Crew Mumby- A great start to AR!

The children have settled into the reading norms well in Year 4. Many children have already quizzed on multiple books and have scored 80% or more! Well done, keep it up! Remember, books read at home can often be found on Accelerated Reader and be quizzed on.

Year 4 – our amazing WW2 expert

We had a wonderful expert visitor in school today who had fantastic WW2 knowledge and had even researched into people who lived in Thorne but played keys roles in the war, one who was actually awarded the Victoria Cross.

The children also got to see different original items from the war, uniform, weapons, gas masks and lots of other items too. They were hooked! Just ask them about it, if they haven’t shared with you already.
