@miss_trolley Yayyyyy, well done!

@MissStanleyYr6 @craigtilstone This year I'm going to keep all of the paper on the learning journey and make it into a maths learning journey scrapbook. Hopefully they will be able to access it at any time to jog their memory and activate prior learning when needed! Fingers crossed 📔📔 2/2

[Birklands Class @BirklandsClass]

@MissStanleyYr6 @craigtilstone have you got any photos of your washing line maths learning journey and mastery board? We magpied some ideas from you and it's been brilliant! My class love showing their parents their name on the wall which is tagged to when they've solved something! 1/2

A brilliant basketball festival at @TheManorAcademy today. So many new skills learned and some very excited children who now want to play basketball in P.E. 🏀🏀

A huge thanks to @Giantsgraft for the skills session and refereeing our games!

Yesterday we learned about the history of Mansfield Woodhouse.

We learned all about mining and lots of children talked to their grandparents about it.

Check out these pit overalls, helmets and knee pads inside a mesh pit bag that one child brought in #beyondtheclassroom

[Birklands Class @BirklandsClass]

We cooked our own pancakes and checked underneath to check if it had browned yet. This is how we checked if it had cooked yet. We evaluated it regularly and noticed that thicker pancakes took longer to cook.

🥞🥞

[Birklands Class @BirklandsClass]

We also tried different combinations of sweet toppings to decide which flavour combinations we liked the best.

This half term in D&T we will look at receipts for savoury pancakes, try toppings on pancakes and design, make and evaluate our own savoury dish.

Watch this space 🥞

[Birklands Class @BirklandsClass]

Pancake Day
Tomorrow we're going to write instructions about how to make a pancake. We will use imperative verbs such as: whisk, stir, weigh, measure, crack and add to make sure they 'command' the reader. 🥞🥞

@keeley020howard She was telling me this today! "Miss I can't hang it this week because I'm moving house, but I can do it when I move in"

Bird boxes are finally finished! Please help your child to complete any maintenance on their bird box and PLEASE send some photos of these hung up in your gardens 😁😁😁

[Birklands Class @BirklandsClass]

These bird boxes were completed using recycled materials including a rubber hinge for the roof! @FHTDesignTech

[Birklands Class @BirklandsClass]

Some very happy children taking home the bird boxes that they worked hard to make! @FHTDesignTech
