‘How can our crew be strengthened by acts of service to others?’ – learning about caring for dogs and adoption appeals.

29th August 2024Mr Schofield

Following our call with the Doncaster branch of the RSPCA, we today worked to support them by sketching the dogs they have for adoption and beginning to type some pieces of persuasive writing, hoping to encourage potential homes for their pets. This required us to recall the features of persuasive writing, as well as develop our computing skills in word processing.

To aid with providing good information in our writing, we also had a visit from Mrs Ogle’s dog where we asked questions about what it takes to be a responsible owner.

I can’t wait to see your finished pieces, they’re looking great already!

Coding abstract art in 5L

23rd April 2024Lucy Wood

5L had so much fun this morning learning how to create art through coding in their computing lesson. I was so impressed with how they created some complex algorithms to create a repeating colourful pattern. The children were really engaged and seemed to enjoy how they could be creative in different ways. I’m so looking forward to seeing what they can do next week!

Computing in Y6

19th April 2024Lucy Wood

6B had a really productive morning learning how to code in computing. The children really enjoyed experimenting to see what they could make their characters do. They also learnt how to create different backdrops and make their characters move across the screen. Well done 6B!

1C had a great time this afternoon learning how to code in computing. All children were able to create different algorithms to move their characters across a screen. They also learnt how to create different backdrops and had an amazing time experimenting to see what else they could make their characters do.

Hook Animation in 1B

3rd January 2023Stuart Longley

We have had an amazing day in 1B today. As part of our new expedition, Ready, Steady, Grow: How can I be the healthiest version of me?, our crew have been creating 3D peppers using DT techniques and have created their own musical note.

However, this afternoon the children have been even more amazing. They have become animators! Each mini-crew has worked together to create an animated clip showing how bees move pollen from one flower to another.

They are absolutely amazing!
