Year 5
It has been fantastic to have all of the children back in class together and we have been working very hard. The highlight for the children was their Computing lesson with Mr Moffat as they learned how to programme microbits π€π₯οΈβοΈ
Year 3 always look forward to our weekly computer lesson with Mr Moffatt. This afternoon the children spoke about how instructions need to be clear and follow a certain order. Then they worked on solving some challenging coding problems.
Year 3 have been learning about the different types of soil in science and they are looking forward to completing some experiments to compare the properties of clay soil, sandy soil, peaty soil and chalky soil.
Reception have been exploring 2d shapes this week-sorting, naming, and building their own squares and rectangles. They described the similarities and differences between 4 sided shapes, super problem-solving skills.
A wonderful start to the new year as Year 2 have been enjoying the Visit of the Magi from (Matthew 2:1-12)
We talked about the celebration of The Epiphany and acted out the arrival of the Magi, following the star and giving gifts to the baby Jesus.
Today we celebrate the Feast of the Epiphany π remembering the Wise Men who followed the star to Jesus, bringing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Year 4 have been learning about this special day.
