Today in Gill class we used the different continents to create a world map. We worked in groups to create a group world map and then created an individual world map for our books.
In Gill Glass for English, we completed our double page spreads on Matthew Henson and his epic expedition to the North Pole from our core text “Race to the Frozen North.”
In Gill Class we have been creating a mood board in DT based on Italian food. There have been lots of discussion around what the children enjoy and what would be healthy meal choices.
In Gill Class we have been writing our diary entries based on our chosen story ‘The Ice Cream Palace’ from our core text ‘Telephone Tales’. The children really enjoyed using their imaginations that everything was made of ice cream.
Gill Class have been celebrating World Book Day! We have spent time reading our favourite stories, had a visit from Mary Poppins and designed our own front covers for our stories.
In our reading lesson today, we have been using different sentence stems to summarise key ideas. We found previously we were confident in a few sentence stems so wanted to challenge ourselves!✍️@PrimaryElaine
Today in Geography, we have been recapping our knowledge about continents. We focussed on Europe for todays lesson and have been identifying countries using maps and atlases @PrimaryElaine
Today in Science, we have been using the puppets we made before half term to test how light sources create shadows. We found that the closer the light source, the bigger the shadow @PrimaryElaine
We have been enjoying building bridges as part of our STEM week learning today. We discussed the challenges we encountered and how we will adapt our approach to our bridge building tomorrow 👩🔬👨🔬🥼🧪@PrimaryElaine
Today in Science we explored different materials and grouped them into translucent, transparent and opaque. We then chose which material would make the best curtain, we decided on an opaque cotton material 😊@PrimaryElaine
On the last day of term publishing Mrs Lloyd you may ask yourself, but the children as so proud of their diary entries and determined to complete their English journey. Well done Haematite. @PrimaryElaine
