To end our topic we have been discussing what different things we would like in Heywood and how we could make these places look really fun and brighten up Heywood. We had lots of fantastic ideas from toy shop to museums. The children then worked really hard creating a design then making a 3D model on purple mash of different buildings. This was a lovely way to end our Street Detectives topic.
Year 3 have had a fantastic afternoon at their Christmas party. We played lots of games, danced, sang and ate party food. All the Year 3 staff wish the children and their families a fantastic Christmas 😀🎅
Year 5 and 6 performed amazingly last week. They have been working hard with their music teacher each week. They have learnt how to play lots of different chords and put them together to perform a variety of songs. I think the audience were very impressed and enjoyed singing along to some of the songs.
Year 5 had a fantastic time taking part in the hour of code session last week. We have been learning about coding in computing lessons and we were able to use these skills to produce some amazing computer programs. The children loved the Star Wars theme and enjoyed testing the algorithms and creating a game. Some children even managed to get to level 15! A great achievement!
We have had a very busy day this day! This morning, we had our Christmas party. It was lots of fun! We did lots of dancing, played different games and even played pass the parcel. We were very tired after all the dancing! We then had a special visit from Father Christmas. He came into class to see all of us and we were able to ask him lots of questions. He even left us Read more
Thank you to everyone who came to join in our final music session with us. Miss Taylor has been teaching us music since September and today was our last session with her. We have really enjoyed music this term and it was lots of fun today having some parents and grandparents join in too. Thank you Miss Taylor and everyone for coming!
This morning we were very excited to see Nathaniel’s mum turn up to read us a story. She brought with her ‘The Smartest Giant In Town’. This is one of our favourite stories so we were very happy that Nathaniel’s mum brought it to read to us. Thank you!
Children in Willows had lots of fun practising our coding skills! We had to direct the bee to the flowers using left, right, forward and backwards. We also learnt how to print our pictures!
Maple have been learning all about the water cycle. We have learnt new words such as evaporation, condensation and precipitation. The children have been busy setting up an experiment to see the water cycle in action. Look at our photos to see how we did it. We have made predictions about what we think we will see happening inside the bowl.
This week St Luke’s is taking part in ‘Hour of code’. Year 3 began their lesson by looking at some of the vocabulary involved in coding such as output and algorithms, which they had to match the correct definitions. They then moved on to using coding to make various sea creatures move in different directions, completing a number of set tasks which increased in difficulty each time. We then discussed where coding is used and Read more
