We are scientists

This week we started case study two and turned into scientist. We have been looking closely at the reproduction of plants and carried out experiments. We dissected a Lily and labelled the different parts of the flower and learnt their purpose. We also looked into the reproduction of an asexual plant and we are waiting to see if our cuttings will reproduce. For our final experiment, we looked at the pollination process and how bees are helpful in the reproduction cycle.

We are scientists

We have dissected lilies this morning to gain a better understanding of each part of the plant and discovering the male and female parts of a plant.

Enjoying a book together 💙

Year 5&6 are on a mission to enjoy a range of books this year! We have launched our phase book reviews this week so the children are excited to share a crew book of their choice each afternoon so they can contribute to the book reviews. They want to encourage other children in school to read their favourite books!

Best attendance in the school!!

To celebrate Crew Myers winning the best attendance in the WHOLE SCHOOL, they are able to come to school in non-uniform on Friday 3rd November.

Well done Crew Myers, I am so proud of you all. Keep up the good work, you are all amazing!

There are prizes to be won and an exciting author visit on Monday for Year 5&6!

MG Leonard will be virtually visiting Year 5/6 children next week based on our upcoming Expedition anchor text- ‘twitch’. I am so excited to be able to gift two copies of the book we will be reading to a Year 5 and a Year 6 child. We have decided to gift these to the children who have produced home learning this term. All children who have engaged in home learning will have their names out into a hat and with a week still to go there are plenty of chances to bring in some home learning!
