What an exciting couple of weeks we’ve had in class! Our little learners really got into the spirit of our medieval theme, taking on the roles of kings and queens.π€΄πΈ Thy got creative as they labeled a king and crafted a list of all the things a king needs to rule successfully.We had a blast embodying our royal characters, bringing a little medieval magic to the classroom!π° β¨
In art, we dove into the ideas of scale and perspective. Who knew getting messy could be so much fun? Our hands became our paintbrushes as we created handprints, ordered from biggest to smallest.π§π¨π¨
We also set off on an adventure to improve Morven Park, which meant a fun trip to explore the park itself. π Discovering our community is always a highlight!
Yellow Day was a bright spot on our calendar, where we wore our happiest outfits. We wrapped up the week with a cozy afternoon watching "Inside Out 2," munching on some popcorn, and even had a surprise guest—our very own Pikachu! π₯ π πΏ
As we gear up for Halloween, the excitement is in the air! We’ve been creating spooky cards and pictures for our friends and family, and our pumpkin carving skills have really shone through.π§πΌβοΈπ»π
Over the past two weeks, we've had lots of exciting learning and fun activities to share with you.
In maths, we've been exploring 2D and 3D shapes, discovering how many sides and corners each shape has.π π§To make it even more exciting, we went on a shape hunt around the school, spotting different shapes in our everyday surroundings! We’ve also just finished our class book, Zog, and we had a blast creating our very own model of Zog. After reading some glowing reviews, I can confidently say it's a must-read, with plenty of 5-star ratings from readers! πππππ
In PSHE, we've been focusing on showing positive behaviors towards one another. We created our "perfect friend," thinking about all the qualities that make someone kind, caring, and helpful. It’s wonderful to see these qualities not only in our PSHE lessons but in everything we do. One of the class's favourite times of the week is Tuesday afternoons, when we relax with yoga, calming gongs, and even enjoy some massages.π§βοΈπβοΈ
