Today, Class 7 were able to build catapults with their adults. It was great to see the amazing designs, resilience when assembling them and seeing them in action.
Class 7 Family Learning!

We’re looking for a Maths Teacher at XP Doncaster!
Crew Spetch – Super Scientists!
Wow! This week we have completed lots of science and a variety of science investigations linking to our Expedition. I have been amazed by the collaboration and the learning by all the children – it’s been great to see everyone so engaged!
We’ve focussed on gravity, water resistance and air resistance and even used our English learning to help us write these up!
Extended Study – Half Term Challenge!
On November 1st it is National Authors Day!
With all of our hard work towards our Reading Library we’d like to know who your favourite authors are?
How could you celebrate your favourite author?
- You could share a story with a family member and take a picture to share
- Listen to a story being read by your favourite author
- Listen to a podcast
- Create a fact-file about your favourite author
- Be creative and become an author and write your own story! We could even have these displayed in your reading area!
We can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Have a lovely half term!
Crew Knowles – Vocabulary Lesson
I’m so impressed with Crew Knowles’ engagement in reading lessons. Here we are during a vocabulary lesson finding the definition to words and improving our dictionary skills!
KS2 Disco!
We had great fun at the disco tonight and I think it was the busiest tuck shop in history! The hot dogs went down a treat, as did Mr Kershaw’s music playlist!
Crew Knowles – Water Resistance Investigation
Today we investigated water resistance and looked at how streamlining affects the amount of water resistance. We did this by creating 4 different shapes using play-doh and measuring the length of time it took for each shape to reach the bottom of the bottle! #OgdenTrust
Crew Knowles – Air Resistance!
We’ve had great fun in our science lessons recently building background knowledge and investigating different forces. Here we are investigating air resistance by making different sized parachutes and measuring the time it took for them to hit the ground. #OgdenTrust
