Science

This week, we have been looking at microhabitats. We took a trip to Maisie's Garden to look under logs, in piles of leaves and under bushes to see what insects and plants we could find. We came back and made a list, drawing some fantastic pictures. We had lots of fun spotting millipedes, ladybirds, worms and beetles!

Art

This week, we started a new unit of work looking at architecture. We were set challenges which included drawing without taking our pencil off of the paper and only drawing with straight lines.

Can you work out the famous building we were drawing? smiley

Computing

 

The children have had a super afternoon searching for different websites using a Chromebook! They used their mouse skills and practiced carefully typing in the different websites into the search bar. 

Art

Over the last few weeks we have been exploring the work of artists that use a range of unusual materials to create their artwork. We have had a go at collecting and constructing some of our own works of art using objects we found the in the school forest area. 

Florence Nightingale Day

The children thoroughly enjoyed our History Off the Page day which focused on the life of Florence Nightingale. They enjoyed creating a range of different objects which Florence would have used during her time as a nurse before taking part in an exploration task where they looked at a number of artefacts to figure out who the items in a suitcase belonged to. Finally, the children took part in role play by acting as soldiers, nurses, gardeners, cleaners and chefs.
