'The Food Train' and 'Scissors' by Ash Class

As a phase, we have been looking at performing poetry in our Guided Reading sessions. Here are two videos from Ash Class.

The children were given no direction from their teacher. They were asked to study the poem and work as a team to perform it.

We have so many photos to document our day! So make sure you come back and check them out! Well done to Year 3/4 for wonderful behaviour and such interest in our topic!

Stone Age Dance in P.E.

We are having so much fun learning about the Stone Age which has been fascinating to explore. During last week's Thursday dance lesson we started to think about Stone Age dance. Here are some photographs. Over the coming weeks, we shall be refining our dance and start to think about the movements that were made. We will think of height and how we can make our bodies travel.

 

 

The Egg Team Challenge

In Ash Class, one of our favourite challenges from the first week was an egg team challenge. The children had to think of ways they could protect an egg from cracking when dropped from a height. 

In groups the children discussed their ideas and then we put them to the test.

The winning team decided to wrap their egg in bubblewrap before cushioning it in packing materials and coco pops! There were some brilliant ideas and fantastic teamwork. Well done Ash Class!

Nature and habitats - Science Trip

Today, year 3/4 went on a science expedition to Tates Copse. Whilst there the children searched for mini beasts, identified trees and generally enjoyed some time amongst nature.
