Last week Year 1 were challenged by NASA to design and create a rocket protype that could be blasted off into space. Of course, we had to test out our rockets. We filled them with fuel and pumped them with air to see how high they would go! We had lots of fun!

Viking Longship Sculpture Work
In Year 1 this week, as part of our case study of The Vikings, we learnt that a sculpture is a 3D piece of artwork, that could be made of anything! We took this knowledge and had a go at making our own Viking longships… out of pasta and marshmallows! As tempting as it was to eat the yummy marshmallows, we resisted and used them as glue for our spaghetti structures. Once we figured out the shape, we had the difficult challenge of working out how to make them 3D. We were resilient and used our problem solving skills to recognise that more spaghetti in one place made it stronger, and we got very creative with our dragon heads for the front of the ships!
1CU are Viking Warriors!
During our English Hook lesson this week, Year 1 got to experience what it would be like to be a viking warrior. In our writing, we are exploring a character description of a young Viking boy named Erik, who dreams of one day being a Viking explorer and warrior.
To get into Erik’s shoes, we had a go at archery to see how the fierce Vikings fought! We had the best time and all really tried hard, even when we found it tricky. We can’t wait to have another go!
KS1 Pride of Plover
Well done to our host of Pride of Plover winners this week. There was a clear theme of growing independence and determination to improve. It was brilliant to hear how you all showed different examples of the Plover Pledge to make sure that your work was always the best it could be. Well done!

Beautiful Work
In Spring, the children in KS1 completed the expedition Ready, Steady, Grow: How can I be the healthiest version of me?
During Case Study 2, they looked at the work of Dennis Wojtkiewicz and recreated some of his artwork.
We are so proud of the finished e-book showcasing some of our artwork.
