Year 3 learnt all about Remembrance Day and drew beautiful poppies and sang a song about Flanders Field in an ensemble. Here are all of their drawings accompanied by their wonderful singing. Well done Year 3, so proud of you!
Class 7 battering rams
Today, Class 7 have had a try at making their own battering rams, as part of DT. First we designed, then we made!
Class 7 remembers!
Class 7 made wreaths to remember and respect Remembrance Day. We observed a beautiful 2 minutes silence as well!
Poppy art and poetry in Nursery
The children created poppy art today for Remembrance Day using paint, sponges, cardboard, leaves and tissue paper. Together as a class, we then collaborated and produced our own metaphor poem. This is how it goes…
Poppies are…
Red as tomatoes and hot peppers.
Bright as the sun.
Important as the soldiers.
Special as our nursery.
Nursery fine motor development and writing
The children used play dough to roll, twist, poke and pinch to build up their muscles in their fingers ready for writing. The children then practised writing the grapheme ‘b’ linked to our phonics rhyme this week ‘BINGO’.
I wonder can you practise singing this rhyme at home? Say the phoneme ‘b’ and have a go at writing the grapheme? This could be in sand, glitter, on paper, with paint, crayons or chalk.
Nursery will remember… 11am on 11.11.24
Year 5 Faith Day
In Year 5, we built on our existing knowledge of Hinduism to focus on Darma, Karma and Reincarnation. We really enjoyed creating our own Darma symbols and held some really in-depth discussions about karma, the meaning and how we can adapt these beliefs into every day life to be the best versions of ourselves!
Crew Walton Will Remember…
Class 7 faith day!
Today, Class 7 have learned about Hinduism during our second faith day of the year. We watched some traditional stories, learned about the long history of Hinduism and then created our own Rangoli patterns We loved it!
Reception Reading Books
This week the children have all received a reading book. It is the expectation that the children will read their book at home and this is recorded in the yellow reading record that came in their reading pack. This will support the children in their phonics skills and help to improve their reading fluency.
Books will be changed on a Tuesday and a Friday as long as it is evident in their reading record that they have read the book. If you need any support with anything reading please ask a member of the F2 Team.
Enjoy!
