A massive shout out to our HOWL point winners and the Out of the World Winners this week. You have all impressed the adults in your crews by being kind, working hard and getting smarter.
Well done Crew Ambler on still leading Accelerated Reader in our phase; the competition is getting closer now! Huge congratulations to Crew Mumby for winning both attendance this week and the HOWLs point spin the wheel – enjoy your extra playtime guys!
A huge well done to all our Y5/6 HOWL and OOTW winners from last week’s community crew meeting. There were lots of shout outs for hard work and getting smart throughout our recent assessments – keep up the good work everyone, we are so proud of you all!
Who will be celebrating this week?
On Friday, at Arts and Craft Club, we had a fantastic time creating 3D pop-up Easter chick cards. I was very impressed with Oscar who worked so hard to complete his image of Captain Tom Moore from the Little People, Big Dreams book series.
Well done everyone – we will continue with more Easter crafts next Friday. Mrs Jackson x
After completing our experiment to see how the temperature effects the growth of yeast, we presented our results using a bar chart.
In crew, we talked about all the science we have done this week. Finally, we created a poster to show what we think about science.
We had a great day celebrating Red Nose Day. We started off with a treasure hunt where we looked at the different Red Noses throughout the years from the very first one in 1988.
Then, we had a go at designing our own red noses.
Thank you to everyone for your donations and coming dressed in red to show your support.
Happy Red Nose Day! It is great to see so many of you dressed in red to show your support today. Thank you for all your generous donations. The school council have one last challenge for you! Over the weekend, we wonder how many different red things you can find.
You could have a look around your house or even venture outside on a walk. Count how many different red things you can find to share with your crew on Monday. You could even take some pictures or draw what you can see.
Yesterday, we investigated at what temperature yeast works best at. After making our predictions, we worked together to set up the investigation making sure to measure carefully. We gave each bottle a good shake and then left them for 10 minutes before measuring each balloon. Then, we decided to leave the bottles over night to see what would happen.
It was lovely to see science club sharing thier learning at today’s coffee afternoon. Thank you to everyone who came and got involved with the investigations.
Check out the QR codes attached below to find out how to carry out the investigations and other science activities you can do at home.
Today, science club have been practising and preparing their investigations to share at tomorrows coffee afternoon. It would get if you could join us to see what they have been learning about.
This morning we started science week by talking about this years focus – connections. We talked about what we are connected to: family, friends and animals. As well as other things like the internet, electric circuits and different parts of our body.
After that we looked at our question: Do people with longer legs jump further? We predicted that it wouldn’t matter how long people’s legs were and that just because they had longer legs it didn’t mean they would jump the furthest. Then, we investigated.
When we had all done three jumps, we found our average. We put all our results on a class results table.
Our results – it didn’t matter how long our legs are. Even some people with the shortest legs jumped the further!
