Today, Class 11 have been creating more circuits in preparation for their results section of their scientific report. They have included a switch this time to see how it would affect the flow of electricity in a simple series circuit. See below images of how Class 11 managed to get the circuits working!
Here is a little update of Class 11s first two week backs after Christmas, now that photos are full working!
In our hook week, we looked into our first Case Study, which will look at electricity and other fuels. We thought it was a great idea to walk around school and search for different electrical appliances. We found so many!
As part of our Case Study 2 hook day, we were looking at biology and more specifically flowers. We labelled the different parts of our artistic flowers and created some beautiful designs!
Next, we looked at the other part of Case Study 2, which will be looking into humans. We created some really fantastic x-rays, so lets hope these are the only x-rays for Class 11 this year!
This week we have started our Case Study fully and have developed our knowledge further of electricity and more specifically circuits. We worked well collaboratively and persevered to make the different circuits light up. Not only can we make circuits, we can name the components of a circuit!
Other great learning has taken place and more beautiful work has been produced, which we can’t wait to continue sharing!
On a personal note, thank you Class 11 for making me feel very welcome and a part of the Crew. Let’s keep being amazing and producing more wonderful work. Happy weekend, guys! 😆
Today, Class 11 have been making their very own circuits, using electrical components that we have been learning about during Expedition. We absolutely loved making these, despite the challenge they offered. Some of us managed to get two bulbs working, whilst a few of us showed tremendous determination to get the switch working! See below for the fun we had:
Today we were exploring shape in our maths session. We were thinking about circles and triangles and how many sides they had and what they looked like. We used lollipop stick to see if we could make our own shape pictures. The children were so engaged and produced some amazing pictures that they could talk confidently about.
Well done!! I am so proud of you all.

Today, we have worked collaboratively to model how the earth, sun and moon relate to one another. We used torches to explore how the seasons and day/night occur during different times of the day or year. We then presented our models back to the class. Well done everyone – some fabulous new knowledge in action!
Chayce you have blown me away today. You have followed all our crew norms and have tried so hard to impress all the teachers today. Your writing was amazing and you managed to achieve green standard. Keep up the good work.
Miss Stewart
Class 4 you really blew me away today with your beautiful writing. You all tried so hard to remember our finger spaces, capital letters and full stops. Keep it up.

Crew Jackson are blowing me away at the moment with their awesome reading skills. Not only are they confidently developing their fluency when reading non-fiction, they are showing they can use their inference skills to match dates and facts that show the evolution of trains over time.
Keep up the hard work guys!

We have been thinking about Length and Height in maths today and Martha used a measuring worm to measure some different objects in the environment. We were using lots of great vocabulary-amazing!
Well done Crew Jackson on fantastic history learning this afternoon. You all used your reading inference skills to match facts about Doncaster Plant Works to the correct phase in its history. I was so impressed with your collaboration and communication skills.
Keep up the great work!
Mrs Jackson
