In LMTW as part of Design and Technology we have been designing and making bags for a fairy. We looked at various styles of bags that we use to carry things but then we decided a fairy needed a small lightweight bag to carry as fairies are small and delicate. The children enjoyed designing, making and decorating their bags!
In Learning Means the World we have been looking at weight and measurement in our DT/Maths aspect of the curriculum, so we decided to make cookies like Little Red Riding hood did to take to her grandma. We looked at all the ingredients needed, followed a recipe and weighed and measured the correct amounts to make the cookies before mixing, kneading and cooking. We finally ate them and the general consensus was that they were delicious.
Today in 1 Blue, we have been looking at fairytales as a part of our Learning Means The World Theme. We read the story of Little Red Riding Hood and we decided to get our aprons ready in order to bake Grandma’s cookies like in the story. We had a go at weighing out the ingredients, mixing them together and then we cut out our own cookies. We can’t wait to taste them!
What a fabulous fortnight we have had we have worked so hard.
We have made rocky road, puppets and flip book animations. We have also been partitioning numbers in Maths and bringing characters to life in English and Drama
Have a look at a few of our photos from the last few weeks, see if you can spot the VIPs who dropped in for breakfast!
What a fabulous afternoon Reception had! Thank you to all the adults who came to support our stay and play! The children were so excited to show everyone around and it was lovely to see them proudly showing off! ❤️⭐️❤️
A great week in Reception. We are using Rainbow Fish for our English jobs. There has been so much creativity and writing linked to this fabulous story! Reception showing off their talents as always ❤️
We’ve had an brillint day at Jarrow Hall, learning all about Anglo Saxon Life. The children took part in three workshops. Learning about ‘crime and punishiment’, ‘life on the farm’ and ‘making textiles’. We also enjoyed listening to the tale of Beawulf, told around a firepit.
Another busy week in Reception. We are showing off our independent writing, maths skills, creativity and simply how amazing we are ❤️⭐️❤️⭐️❤️
Year 2 have been making our own birds as part of our Going Wild’ theme. We have loved learning about the elephant bird so we decided to try and make one. We used our Design and Technology skills to sew around our shape. We then added stuffing, closed our bird with more stitches then added on eyes and wings. I think you’ll agree we are SEW great!
Take a look at the fabulous activities the children took part in on RE Day this week!
