Outdoor Adventurous Activities
This half term, we have been completing some outdoor adventurous activities with the Lancashire sports coach. Today we made dens in the woods.
Flat Chat
Today we completed a 'flat chat' activity. We had 5 minutes to write as many verbs, adjectives, nouns and adverbs as we could.
Soil Permeability
During our science lesson today, we tested the permeability of soils.
Right Angle Hunt
Today we learnt what a right angle was! We used our right angle finders to find right angles around our classroom.
Fake Webpages!
During our computing lesson, we looked at a 'Tree Octopus' website and realised that the information given was untrue! We discussed how we cannot believe everything that we read online. We then created our own fake webpages using the laptops.
The Old Dry Stone Wall
This week, we have been reading the poem 'The Old Dry Stone Wall'. We first saw a picture of the wall and used 'flat chat' to generate ideas as to what could be hiding in the gaps. After reading the poem, we created a text map of the poem and worked in groups to orally retell it…
Bar Charts
We've been learning about statistics in maths this week. We made plenty of bar charts to show data about our class.
Contraction Surgery
We spent our spelling session today being surgeons (with words!). The plasters became our apostrophes!
Fossils
During our science lesson today, we made models of fossils using saltdough and toy dinosaurs!
Testing Rock Permeability
During our science lesson today, we tested the permeability of rocks to find which rock would be the most suitable for a new worktop.
Direct Speech
We've been reading 'Stone Age Boy' in our English lessons and have been considering what the characters may be saying to one another. We have been trying to write this as direct speech.
Writing Numbers
During our maths lesson, we practised writing numbers in words. We played a game that involved rolling the dice and writing the numbers that we created.
