Term 1

Welcome to Term 1!

The children seem to be enjoying being back and we have tried to do as much learning outside as possible this week.

In maths, we have been recapping on the place value of tens and ones, and the children went outside and became the base 10 equipment on the playground which had been marked up as a place value grid.

Practising our place value 10s and 1s.

Week 2

Performing poetry

This week in guided reading, the children read and performed the poem Voices of Water by Tony Mitton. They did an amazing job of adding in the actions and sound effects. Well done Oak Class!

Week 3

We are all back for another action packed week - a few with common colds!

On Monday, we learnt about the history of the Earth, from the book A pebble in our pocket by Meredith Hooper. We created a human timeline from 480 million years ago to now.

We also looked at prepositions in GPS and the children acted out their preposition (under, over, above, behind etc).

Week 4 - What more numberlines?

Week 5 - Structure of the Earth model making

Journey to the centre of the Earth art work

Inspired by the art work of Andrea Myers, Mrs Hood recapped with the children their previous learning about primary, secondary and tertiary colours then layered pieces of paper to create this amazing artwork.
