Our Enriching Curriculum
Maple
This week the children have been exploring different materials and have used the story of the three little pigs to support this. They have also been exploring self portraits and have used mirrors to try and accurately draw their faces.
Birch
We are close to concluding our unit on Animals including Humans in science. This week, we have been learning about animals with different types of skeletons. We examined examples of creatures found in the school grounds with different skeleton types.
Sycamore
This week Sycamore Class have been reading 'The Saga of Erik the Viking' by Terry Jones.
We created a Conscience Alley to help Erik to decide whether or not to go on his next quest. We also wrote some brilliant pieces of writing about what qualities you need in order to become a hero in a story.
Aspen
To kick off our new Science learning, we created a model of the Solar System to show its scale, movement and features. With the model, we were able to understand the movements of the planets in our Solar System, including planet Earth in relation to the sun and the moon.
