We were very lucky today as we had the M6 Theatre Company come to our school and put on a show for us. It was called ‘A Little Gift’. We all really enjoyed watching it and listening to the story. Thank you M6 Theatre Company!
Our topic this half term is the enchanted woodland. Today we have looked at mythical creatures that might live in the woods. We went outside and made tree boggarts in the wooded area at the bottom of the field. We used clay and natural materials from outside. See if you can spot them as you walk past!
For challenge 2 we created two different videos. For the first video we created step by step instructions on how to log onto a computer. This is then going to be used to help reception and Year 1 children: Click the link below https://stlukesceprimaryco-my.sharepoint.com/:v:/g/personal/sgraham_stlukesceprimary_co_uk/ETJ96wjQYihKtHQy4e88fLcBOVtd19jTjH2U8HNCqekhYg?e=A1B8kN For the second video we have created instructions on how to comment on the St Luke’s blog page. We found that not many parent/children comment on the blog so we thought Read more
As part of our new topic ‘Wriggle and crawl’ we went on a minibeast hunt in Kaden’s garden. We found ants, slugs, spider webs, woodlouse and flies:
Today saw possibly the most amazing reaction to a book we have ever witnessed in Year 6. For the past week, the children have been studying and inferring ideas and information from our latest book, The Watertower. Each day we revealed part of the story; each day the children complained that we had to stop! The slow reveal (a strategy embedded within our Write Stuff approach to writing) really hooked the children until eventually, Mr Read more
In Year 6,we have had the opportunity to work with author Yvonne Weatherhead on her Starfly book series. Some of the children have spent a number of 3-4 day sessions studying the book, its characters, themes and images. As well as this, the children have been afforded the opportunity to edit chapters of the book, having their name published in the book to acknowledge their work. This week, the children focused on ‘The Read more
This term we are learning about animals. During circle times we have been talking about what we already know about animals. We knew the names of lots of different animals, where some of them lived and the noises that some of them made. So we decided to carry out more research about animals. We had lots of animal books, soft toys and pictures of animals to examine and compare. We spent time doing this and Read more
This half term, Year 6 are investigating prayer as meditation. To start our topic, the children took part in a series of guided meditations and then discussed the impact and effect they had on themselves, and how they felt they would impact on others. After much relaxation (and some snoring) the children came up with some incredibly thoughtful and mature ideas to support the use of guided meditation. The class agreed on the Read more
Today we started our new topic for this half term, ‘The Enchanted Woodland’. We were learning about mythical creatures that live in the woods and had to create our own tree Boggarts using clay. Have a look at some of our creations!
A fantastic start to the new year in Year 3. We began the week looking into our new topic titled ‘scrumdidlyumptious’. This is a topic based around food. We began the week by talking about the difference between fruits and vegetables and tasted various ones including, Lychee, Pineapple, Grapefruit, mushroom, radish, sugar snap peas, plum and cucumber. Miss Lomax was really impressed that every child in the class tried each one. Well done Birch.
