Wow! We had so much fun today experiencing the rainforest using VR headsets! The children loved learning about the different species of animals that lived in the different layers and got up close to a variety of fabulous animals!
Crew Barnett – VR Workshop
What an amazing experience with our VR Workshop this morning. We had a trip through the rainforest and met lots of different animals, face to face, including a giant tarantula! As well as exploring the Amazon we learnt some great facts! Did you know the Amazon is 55 million years old or that it is home to 2.5 million different species of insects?
KS1 Maths Club
In maths club today we have been looking at number bonds, partitioning numbers, missing numbers and adding numbers together. Well done everyone who came, you all smashed it! 😊
Class 10s day!
To say that this was Class 10s first attempt at reading block, they smashed it out of the park. We had some super discussions about our class text, whilst also trying to make predictions about the book based on illustrations, the title and also the blurb. We also discussed what fiction and non-fiction was.
We also learned about how the Romans used mosaics as part of their artwork, so we thought… why don’t we do the same? Although there were many bits and our hands were full of glue, we still enjoyed creating our very own mosaics!
Finally, we ended the day with our own Roman sports day. We had chariot racing, Roman hurdles, marching practise and we even had a shot put event. Despite the heat (it really did feel like and Italian summer) we loved it!
Crew Ambler – Geography
This morning as part of our geography hook lesson we learnt about the different layers of the rainforest and how they are different from each other. This afternoon we then took part in a VR workshop and experienced what life is like in the Amazon rainforest. Well done Crew Ambler it looked like everyone enjoyed themselves!
