Our mission in Commando Joe today was to help Simba the lion and his friends save the animals who had been scattered across the African Savannah.
We had to work as a team to get around the course and bring all of the animals back safely.
The children were resilient- not giving up when things went wrong and had innovative ideas how to solve problems.
After the lesson the class agreed that they hadn’t talked to each other enough and set themselves the target of better communication next time.
As part of our Dimensions topic on the Arctic, class 3 have been painting penguins, building marshmallow igloos and even attempted some Inuit throat singing!
We have really enjoyed learning about Inuit people and how their loves differ from ours. We were particularly interested in their diet!
This week’s Articles of the Week are Articles 7 and 8!
Article 7- You have the right to a name and nationality.
Article 8- You have the right to an identity.
How many things can you think of that shape your identity?
KS2 children had a fantastic experience of an African dance workshop on Tuesday. It was a fun, engaging and memorable essential learning experience that allowed the children to have a broad understanding of cultural diversity.
The workshops were delivered by the fantastic Tunde Olasupo, who taught them some of the different traditional African dance moves native to this wonderfully vibrant and diverse culture.
This term Class Four will be working in dance. Every Monday for the next six weeks, Miss Skiggs will be working with the class to teach dance steps and to combine the steps in to a routine.
Some of the children in Class 4 were given a challenge in maths today to compare addition and subtraction facts. Although that was tricky – there was an added level of difficulty, in that the calculations had been completed and the children had to check they were correct and sort them in to true and false.
🌟⭐️ It felt so good to get all the children back in and celebrating our star of the week assembly on Friday. All the children have returned with a fantastic attitude but these have gone even further and are our ‘stars’ for this week. Well done to them all. ⭐️🌟
Year 2 are looking at art created by Christy Brown who painted pictures with his foot. It made perfect sense for the children to have a go too!
