4H have worked in small production teams to research the geographical and human features of Svalbard – an archipelago of islands at the heart of our current expedition. They will use this information to write a comparison between Svalbard and South Yorkshire.
Fabulous teamwork today folks, well done!

I think I need to watch my back! The confidence growth in this young man has been phenomenal over the last few weeksā¦To stand in front of 30 children and explain your thinking out loud is really tricky but you handled it like a pro, Roscoe! Both myself and Mrs Pass are incredibly proud of you; and we hope you are also proud of yourself!

4H have worked really hard today to build their understanding of the Muslim Holy Book: The Qurāan. They collated information from our Gallery Walk and transformed it into some beautiful posters to be proud of! Well done everyone; you have gained a wealth of knowledge in a polite and respectful way, and really taken pride in the work you have produced.

We have been in awe this afternoon when we visited Svalbard via GoogleMeet! Joanna (our expert speaker) works as a biologist for an amazing organisation called Polar Bears International. She told us so much about polar bears and their habitat – helping us to build real-life background knowledge. She is currently working on a really important project about polar bear and human cohabitation. We aim to help her organisation towards the end of our expedition by making a monetary donation. You can find out more about them on their website: https://polarbearsinternational.org/
It was one of my favourite moments so far this school year when children started getting out of their seats and as close to the screen and Joanna as they could. Everyone started the session sat at a table then slowly but surely, more and more crept closer and closer to her. They were enraptured!
Thank you, Joanna!

Year 3 had so much fun in PE today. They perfected the skills of balancing, jumping and landing on one foot and creating their own challenges in groups. They came up with some brilliant athletics challenges and it was so lovely to see them use their imagination when doing this. Keep it up 3F!

In English, we have been looking for and suggesting different partitive nouns to show how much of a particular something we have. The children suggested a teaspoon of sugar; a loaf of bread; and a bolt of lightning amongst many others. They were then able to insert missing partitive nouns into a recipe for hot chocolate.
Well done everyone!

LKS2 have had a couple of great days in PE learning a variety of different skills including; sprinting using a bounce board, long jump, speed bounce and chest push activities. The children worked up a sweat and it was so nice to see every child so engaged and excited about their learning!

Year 4 had a lovely introduction to Athletics this morning. Children worked in pairs to test their reaction times and then went on to doing some timed sprinting races. What an amazing start to the new year!

In Speedy Reading lessons this week, we have been working carefully to use evidence from the text to help us explain our answers. You have all been working so hard folks! Just look at the concentration on their faces…

3GS worked really hard at the start of the week, researching aspects of Roman life. They had to use different sources to find out more about Roman roads, houses, clothing and towns.
After they completed the research, they produced posters and presented their findings to the rest of the class, so everyone could learn what they had learnt.
