3B had a wonderful time learning all about life during the Second World War at Wilderspin. They learnt about the different roles of people on the home front and the life of a child evacuee. A great start to hook week!

We are ARTISTS!
In 1/2K we are becoming really fantastic artists. We have been practicing and practicing our line art. We have drafted this piece 5 times, learning more skills as we go along! Yesterday we completed our final pieces by using the different shading techniques before we began our drafts. We are really proud to share with you some of the children’s work!
1/2K Celebration of Learning
Thank you so much to those wonderful parents who joined us this afternoon for our celebration of learning. They delivered a wonderful presentation of our learning and it was so great to see everyone being super brave to say their own parts. I am so proud of all of you 1/2K!
The children have worked so hard this term as both local Geographers and local Historians. They have shown great enthusiasm learning more about the things they see all the time and I am so proud of their achievements. We were especially proud of our final product. We have created a scheme of learning to teach others BSL, we hope to spread this around to educate and open up conversations for as many people as we can. This has been something that has been very important in our classroom and the impact for our children really has been something special to be a part of.
Behind the scenes….
A sneak peek behind the scenes in KS1 this afternoon. We have been movie stars this afternoon, filming videos in front of a green screen with Geoff! This will be for our final product and we are so excited to share it with you. A big thank you to Geoff for filming and Plover’s own experts Joe, Zuzanna and Rahoz for being the best directors EVER!
Messy Maps!
This afternoon we have been looking at our classroom and the key features we have in it. We began by looking at important vocabulary such as aerial view/Birds Eye view and discussed why that is important to this lesson. We wrote about what we already know and features we thought were really important. We played a game of “I Spy” with our friends to identify what we already had in our classroom. We then looked at different aerial view maps of different classrooms and compared them to ours. We then created a messy map, using different resources to create an aerial view map of our own classroom. The children could explain what they had used for tables, chairs, the desk, where the doors are in the classroom, etc.
We had lots of fun creating our maps!

Marvellous Home Learning in 1C!
Just look at the beautiful work Almina created at home! She has made an entire ocean in a tank and included examples of pollution, which is harming our sea creatures. This is linked to our current expedition in Key Stage 1; The Blue Planet. She also wrote this beautiful piece explaining why it is important that we look after our oceans!
Well done Almina! I am very proud!
Instructions: Bee Hotel 🐝
As part of our new writing unit, we are learning to write instructions. Today, we practiced following some instructions on how to make a bee hotel. First we collected some sticks to create the middle section. Then we made our bed hotels in mini crews before heading outside to put them in our eco-garden.
We are scientists! 👩🔬👨🔬
4B have been scientists investigating which surfaces are the best to travel on. After conducting our experiment, we compared which surfaces the counter travelled the furthest on when pushed. We discovered that the counter travelled the shorter distance on surfaces which were rough and bumpy because it had more friction compared to the smoother surfaces with less.
Well done 4B for working well together in your mini crews!
