Take a look at our Spring 2 RE Day
Reception have been showing off their independent reading, writing and maths skills. We have been reading words, hunting for them outside and writing sentences. We are using skittles, counters and objects to investigate number bonds of 10. We have decorated pots and then sprinkled cress seeds in to make cress heads. We talked about what the seeds need so that they will grow. We have some new additions to Reception. Everyone was so excited to see the frogspawn. We will be investigating how they change, grow and how we can look after them.
We had an awesome day celebrating World Book Day. We took part in lots of different activities throughout the day. We performed our favourite traditional tale in the Performance Area and then we listened to a story in Hansel and Gretel’s cottage. Later on, we built a bridge for the three Billy goats, built a giant beanstalk for Jack to climb and made houses for the three little pigs.

7 Blue have been exploring the traditional tale ‘The boy who cried wolf’. We decorated our classroom door and the children got to write their own traditional tales with a twist.
At the end of the week we celebrated by dressing up as a book character and took part in lots of fun activities around school. We had a fantastic week!
We have had great fun today doing all things related to Traditional Tales as part of ‘World Book Day’. We have built beanstalks for Jack, houses for the three pigs, a bridge for the troll and decorated princess carriages. We got to listen to stories in Hansel and Gretel’s cottage and also acted out our favourite stories in the Performance Area. The children have made book marks in class and had a quiz around traditional tales, the competition is unreal. Great fun has been had by all.
Wow! Wow! Wow! I am blown away with the amazing ‘Book in a Box’ entries. They are just out of this world. Never in my wildest dreams did I think we would have such an amazing response to our challenge! Yet again you have all shown us what incredibly talented people you all are. I have tried to capture them all but apologies if I’ve missed anyone. I’m glad I’m not judging! Winners to be announced soon.
Another great Book Day in Hebburn Lakes!
2 Red loved spending the week looking at fractured fairytales and created their own very imaginative versions of Cinderella.
We then ended the week with a whole range of fairytale-themed activities such as a character hunt around the school, a decorated door competition, reading in the Hansel and Gretel Hobbit Hut, performing like fairytale characters in the Magical Forest performance area, challenges of building houses of sticks and bridges of paper, and many, many more fun activities!
For our book week this year we have chosen Cinderella as our feature book. We wrote a fractured fairytale about Cinderella where we changed an important part of the story, she may have lost her purse instead of a glass slipper or she may have gone swimming instead of to the ball. The children had lots of fun coming up with their own version. We the invited our parents in to read with us which we thought was amazing. We ended book week with a day of dressing up and all things fairytale. We created bridges, castles and beanstalks in the hall, read stories in the witches cottage, performed our own stories in the performance area, went on scavenger hunts to find letters to make words and hunting down 46 different fairytale creature around the school. We have had an amazing week and can’t wait to see what next years theme is!
Reception had a fabulous World Book Day! We dressed up as lots of our favourite characters and made some amazing story boxes We had an amazing time exploring all of our activities.
Year One we have been using algorithms in LMTW to follow instructions for making porridge. This also linked well with our twisted tale ‘Goldilocks and the Three Fairies’ as part of book wee in English. Today we enjoyed making and eating porridge with various toppings. Most of the children enjoyed eating it but there were a few who weren’t quite sure about it.
