Prepositions recap
Today we recapped our knowledge on Prepositions We practiced writing sentences using prepositions in the correct way. We were shown images and had to identify sentences within the picture to build a sentence.
Chestnut group (Article 28,31 & 36)
During Chestnut intervention group today the group followed a structured visual schedule to participate in a baking activity. Skills used were turn taking, listening and following instructions and personal safety when baking. They then listened to Miss Ennis read a lovely story all about a recycling a box and the children decided that for an art project they can recycle a box next week and make it into a train, aeroplane or a board game about flags. They cannot wait to decorate and eat their cakes too.
The force of Gravity!
Today in our Science lesson Mr Winn came in and told us all about what happened to Sir Isaac Newton when he was sat under the tree. We practiced key vocabulary with physical demonstrations that helped us identify the difference between them! We had developed knowledge on edifying theories such as Sir Isaac Newton’s theory of gravity.
Features of a Play Script
Today in our English lesson we developed our knowledge on features of a play script. We got into pairs and worked as a team to identify and discuss the features of a play script. We identified Scene numbers and title, setting description, speakers name, stage directions in brackets, speech without inverted commas and will be in present tense.
To know features of a play script!
Today we practiced the features of a play script. We did this by identifying the Narrator and characters and the speaking parts of a play called ‘How the birds got their colours’. We went through and identified how a play-script was different to a story by identifying acting and characters personalities within a play-script.
Vikings in Rowan class (Article 31 & 28)
During topic this term in Rowan class we are learning about Vikings. This afternoon we participated in a carousel of activities visiting others classes to complete them including reading and recognising our letters for our names. Writing our name out in Viking rune on a tomb stone then wiping a wet tea bag over to make it look old and tarnished. We used plasticine to mould and manipulate into the shape of a Viking boat and tested on water to see if it floated or sank. Jordan said “because we compressed the plasticine it made it more compact to hold the water”. The final activity was to make a Viking Trollen craft reel (similar to a hair braid) ensuring we only followed the odd numbers to make the pattern.
Changes in Materials
This morning we have been doing a practice lesson of seeing the changes in materials, and reversible and irreversible changes. We used filters with sand and water to see the difference between a soluble liquid and were able to see how the sand doesn’t filter through when there is water applied. We also saw how oil and water separates when mixed in with each other.
Well done Birch for taking part in our Science lesson.
