Eddie the Penguin Saves the World...

Wow- what a busy week we've had!
It started with our amazing performances of Eddie the Penguin Saves the World... We had so much fun singing, speaking and acting for the school and all of our grown ups. Mrs Turner, Mrs McLellan and Mrs Orchard are so proud of us all too.
I enjoyed saying my lines - Daisy

We used our English and computing skills together to create non-chronological reports about space. We read non-fiction books to find facts, and wrote them in our own words. Then we used  https://creativecommons.org/ to search for and collect pictures to go with our reports. We talked about using the internet safely to collect images. The pictures we find by using this website are ones we are allowed to reuse.

It was hard to collect the right picture with my group. Poppy helped us. We all persevered until we managed to paste it into Word. Grace
We printed the pictures.. Tom

Theo brought in a story called 'Man on the Moon' which we read before we wrote our own space story.
I had an adventure in space. I met an alien and we became friends. Theo
On the way back from space, my spaceship broke down!

In maths, we have been exploring using measures. We used a ruler to measure length. We enjoyed exploring weight using the grams.We discovered how heavy a kilogram is. We also used our reasoning skills to work out how much a container could hold.

Today has been Sports relief. We loved wearing our sports clothes. We had fun dancing with Oak class. The we went outside to skip, play tennis, throw and catch balls and then we went on a run around the outdoors! We hope we've raised lots of money.

This week, we talked about road safety and our Home Learning is to create a poster about it.

Next week is busy.... It's Mrs Byrne's  last week.

Monday 3:30-5 we can come back to school with our grown ups to see Mrs Byrne.
On Tuesday, we need to come to school in party clothes :)

This week William got the Star Award for his great thinking about keeping safe near roads. Well done William.

Ben is our Learning Owl this week. He always works hard, he uses 'because' to explain his thinking and he was really enthusiastic in all of our pay rehearsals and performances. Well done, Ben. Have a great weekend with Snowy.
