Thank you to everyone who donated items at the Harvest Festival last Friday and for the generous donations to the NSPCC Kindness Challenge. We are so proud of how the children use their Empathy Goggles to share kindness. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our Learning this week: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Reception:<\/strong> we have continued to explore the text \u2018Where the Wild Things Are\u2019. We have been practising sequencing and retelling the story, and then acting it out as a class. The kids have also enjoyed writing messages to one of the Wild Things to help him find some lost items, and using their imagining<\/strong> tool to draw huge pictures of the Wild Things to add them to the role play area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year 1<\/strong>: in science we have been exploring the human body. We identified and labelled different body parts and used our collaboration<\/strong> tool to investigate how and when we use our five senses. We then used our making links<\/strong> tool and realised that we use many senses throughout the day, such as; at lunch time we use our sense of smell, taste, touch and sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Year 2<\/strong> have been using their making links<\/strong> tool in maths as we started our new learning on addition and subtraction. We are using our knowledge of place value to help us add and subtract numbers, and we are ready for the challenge!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Year 3<\/strong> have been using their reasoning<\/strong> tool to decide whether a sloth would make a good pet or not – most of us thought it would be pretty boring!! We then read about a girl who did get a pet sloth and we are looking forward to finding out what tricks the sloth can do\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year 4<\/strong>: we used our collaboration<\/strong> and reasoning<\/strong> tools to model our digestive systems. We used a variety of different equipment to make the mouth, oesophagus, stomach, intestines and rectum, digesting the food with the help of \u2018saliva\u2019 (water) and \u2018stomach acid\u2019 (orange juice).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Year 5<\/strong> have been using their collaboration<\/strong> and reasoning<\/strong> tools in science to plan how to separate a mixture of pasta, iron objects, rice, sand and salt. We used different materials, including magnets to separate the iron objects and a sieve to separate the rice. Finally, we poured water into the salt and sand mixture to dissolve the salt. We were then able to separate it from the sand using a funnel and filter paper!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Year 6<\/strong> finished reading Leila and the Blue Fox this week which lead to some rich and insightful discussions about the migration of people in the modern world and the problems they can face. To accompany this topic, they used their Imagining<\/strong> tool to create wonderful Arctic landscapes, which of course included Miso the Blue Fox.
