Crew Faulding, we’re back!

Starting this week, we have Austerfield on Tuesday. 

Just a reminder that children are to be taken to Austerfield from 9 o’clock and we will be there to meet you in the car park!

The forecast is looking brighter tomorrow too so fingers crossed we’ll see plenty of sunshine but please still bring a water proof coat just in case! Please double check the kit list to make sure you’ve got everything!

Also, we have our trip to Bridlington next week so please can all forms be returned ASAP.

See you in the morning. Mrs Faulding x

Jam Jars Needed – Can you help?

We are starting to collect all the resources we need for the year 3/4 product and are running short on jam jars for all the children to have 2 each for their product.

If you have jam or anything in a small glass jar, we would be very grateful if you could bring this to school for us to use when you have finished.

Thank you to those who have already helped the cause and brought some in for us!

We Will Rock You

Year 5 were singing stars today performing the Bon Jovi classic Livin’ On A Prayer.
They then listened to the rock anthem We Will Rock You by Queen and each class agreed that the hook of the song was the famous ‘clap, clap, stomp’ rhythm. They identified the similarities and differences between the two songs and then blew me away as they recorded the various musical elements, including the pulse, rhythm and texture of both songs.
Well done my super rockstars!

Scientists exploring evaporation!

We’ve held another fab investigation today in Expedition. To further support our learning about the changes of state, we focussed today on liquid escaping in to a vapour by boiling a kettle and observing the change.

Frustratingly, some of our predictions weren’t correct as some children predicted that we would have more water due to water changing back in to a liquid through condensation however, we learnt how that part of the process didn’t occur as the water left the kettle and evaporated.

We concluded our investigation with a bar chart and a written explanation of our findings- just like a true scientist!

Spin the Wheel Treats!

When you’re crowned the HoWL point winners for this week, there’s only one thing for it….a photoshoot with your well deserved ice creams!

A huge shout out to everyone in Crew Faulding for working hard, getting smart and being kind! You guys certainly racked up those HoWL points last week!

So proud of you all and how hard you’ve tried not only last week but every single week this half term!
