Well done to some of our Y5/6 girls who took part in a netball tournament this afternoon at Laurel Academy in Mexborough. The girls developed their skills as the tournament went on. They missed out on reaching the final by a last minute point 2.1. #LovePlover
Helping our classmates to improve their work
After writing up or scientific report following an investigation into water resistance, I was impressed to see the children using their skills of peer critique to provide kind, helpful and specific feedback to improve their work. A great example of being kind. Well done!
UKS2 E-Safety
UKS2 had a wonderful session about how to stay safe online and understanding how to use the Internet appropriately and safely.

Well done to the 16 girls who represented Plover in a local football match against Mount Carmel. Y5 girls won 3-0, Y6 girls lost 2-0. A great way to end the term! #LovePlover
5S Study Sikhism
For our R.E. learning, we focused on religious festivals. Specifically, we looked at the Sikh festival of Bandi Chhor Divas.
We learnt about how it is celebrated in India, and what specific ways British families recognise the occassion.
We then told the story of the festival in groups by creating posters and storyboards.
Well done!

5S investigating air resistance
5S investigated the effect of air resistance on large sheets of card by running with them held in different positions. Interestingly, we found that the card has more air to move aside when held up, meaning we were not able to run quickly. If we held the card on it’s side, the effect of air resistance was reduced and we could run faster.
We discussed some real life examples such as bicycle helmets and clothing, formula one cars and parachutes and described the advantages of streamlined design.
