Characters

17th June 2024Rebecca Bubb

In F2, we have been thinking about characters from the stories we have read. This week, we are thinking about characters for our own seaside adventures. We talked about them and then went to create them using drawings, paintings, models or play dough in provision.

Which character will you choose?

14th June 2024Mrs Price

Yesterday we thought about the characters we have read about throughout the expedition. We learnt to sign who and the characters. Today the children chose the character for their story and created it in some way. Have a look at their creations.

Super Scientists in 3SG

13th June 2024Mrs Graves

This week we have been working as scientists, we have made Oobleck and tried to determine if it is a liquid or a solid, we have beenusing thermometers to find the warmest and coldest areas in school and then observing ice cubes to discover if temperature affects the rate of melting.

We really have been engaged in our learning and can’t wait to discover more about solids, liquids and gases.

Whatā€™s In Your Bucket?

13th June 2024Amy Wood-Samways

This week we have started case study 3. We read the story Billyā€™s Bucket, then used our imaginations to decide where our buckets would take us. We had a go at drawing what would be inside our buckets, then some children chose to follow up their own learning by drawing and designing, the outside of their bucket.

6R have been working as Historians

11th June 2024Sarah Robertson

We are learning all about the Egyptians. 6R have been doing a lot of hands on learning this week. We have mummified a tomato, to understand the process of mummification. They have baked bread and learned about the Egyptian diet. We have learned about the pyramids, the pharaohs and how they used the river Nile.

Come to Doncaster!

11th June 2024Mrs Lewis

Today 2L has been learning about the features of posters. We looked at different examples of posters to help us understand what features they included to make them good. We decided that posters needed to be colourful, eye-catching, clear and bossy. Once we had finished, we critiqued each other’s posters and checked they had included all the features.

Solids, liquids and gases

11th June 2024Laura Brown

To kick start our new Science case study, we have been exploring what solids, liquids and gases are. We have found examples around the room, described their properties and explained why they are so different by how their particles are arranged. Super start to the new term! Well done 4B!

Oobleck!

10th June 2024Mr Schofield

Inspired by the Dr Seuss story, we made our own Oobleck to investigate states of matter. We were intrigued to discover that Ooblek is a ‘non-Newtonian fluid’, meaning it behaves like both solid and liquid. We then wrote about our observations. Great fun, well done all!
