Will we ever see the water we drink again?

15th November 2019R Smith
This term our geography enquiry question was  ‘Will we ever see the water we drink again?’
As Geographers, we discovered where water sources are in our local environment by using ordnance surveys. We learnt about the relevance and importance of the water cycle and how all the water in our world in continuously recycled. We investigated climates around the world and used maps and atlases to identify key features. Finally, we explained how human activity has caused our environment to change by looking at the preferable use of renewable energy, such as hydro power.
Within this topic, we set the children a homework task to complete a water project. The children created all sorts of wonderful creations to express some of the aspects they had learned. We had power points, posters, books and creative models. We invited our parents and carers into school where the children shared their fantastic masterpieces.

Bring It On!

15th November 2019R Smith

In October, 15 keen scientists from Year 6 returned to the fabulous Bring It On Engineering and STEM event at the Beacon of Light. The children were engaged all day and took part in numerous experiments and tasks from the many different companies that were there. West Boldon children were often the leaders of the mini competitions set by the organisations present. Hopefully, this event has inspired these young scientists and made them think of a career in STEM related vocations.

Be Safe Project

15th November 2019R Smith

On Thursday 7th November Dave Burn from the Be Safe project spoke to year 6 about Keeping Safe – stranger danger, staying safe on the streets and making choices.

We talked about making the right choices, such as privacy, knowing who we should and shouldn’t talk to and the information we should or shouldn’t share, keeping safe on the internet and what we should do if we find ourselves in a difficult situation.

Non-Chronogical Reports

15th November 2019R Smith
Year 2 are currently preparing to write non chronological reports in literacy about Robins. We have been using the ipads and information sheets to find out all about the appearance, diet, habitat and behaviour of Robins. We used the RSPB website to support our research and found out lots of interesting facts. We have been learning to use the conjunctions ‘if’ and ‘when’ in our sentences, using different sentence openers and writing questions such as “Did you know Robins use the stars to help them navigate?”. Well done year 2!

  3. What happens if it goes off?
  4. What noise does it make?
  5. What happens if there is an intruder?

The children are learning about different religions and how people show care as they understand different religions and have respect for one another.

In our Learning Challenge this term we will be learning the difference between Passover and Lent.
