Y3 Cityscape collage

For their art unit this half term, the children were creating cityscapes inspired by the artist Paul Klee. The children used a range of mediums such as paper, card, tissue paper and crepe paper to create their final work. They did such a fabulous job!

 

Y3 Internet Safety Day

To celebrate safer internet day, we watched a live stream all about AI. It covered: what it is, where it gets the information from and how I can be safe whilst using it?

In class, we carried the discussion on by talking about voice assistant devices that we may have in our house and how they are powered by AI. We spoke about how to be safe whilst using them such as the information that we should and shouldn’t share.

We used the slogan ‘Stop, Think, Ask’ when thinking about how to be safe.

For our activity, we created a poster to help others to remember how to be safe whilst using AI, especially when using voice assistants that they may have at home.

 

 

Year 3 Science Experiment

This half term, the children have been learning all about animals including humans in our science topic. Today, they children completed an investigation to test whether children with longer legs jump further.

The children made sure our investigation was fair throughout and used their new maths skill of column addition to add up the distances at the end.

In the end, the children did conclude that children with longer legs do jump further!

 

NSPCC Number Day Activities

To celebrate number day this year, Year 3 played a range of maths games with their friends. Some played snap, some played uno and others played a maths version of connect 4.

The children also loved wearing their own clothes featuring a number. We had plenty of ‘6-7’ t-shirts and jumpers!

Year 3 Narrative

This week, year 3 have published and written their narrative based on the Wellington Cobbler and The Wrekin Giant. The children worked so hard to include the grammatical features taught throughout the unit.

Please enjoy reading over a selection of the children’s work:

 

 

Year 5 DT Workshop

On Monday, year 5 were very fortunate to be visited by a DT specialist. They were given the opportunity to create a mechanism for a local company called Cedo.

The children made a pulley system using dowel and wheels. They also made a ‘conveyor belt’ out of paper which attached over the dowel and wheels to allow the paper to move an item (cling film rolls made out of straws) from one side of the mechanism to the other side. The children had lots of fun creating their mechanism!

At the end of the workshop, the children showcased their work to each other.

 

Year 3 My Telford

On Wednesday year 3 visited Dawley High Street and Telford Town Centre as part of their geography field work. They were investigating the question: ‘Does Telford Town Centre have more facilities than Dawley High Street?’ The children loved walking around both places and using their maths skills to create a tally whenever they spotted a facility!

Back in school, the children will now use their data to create a bar chart and stage a debate to show where they would rather live – Dawley High Street or Telford Town Centre.

 

Poppy’s dancing achievements

At the weekend, Poppy competed in a dance competition. She competed in ballet, tap, modern, lyrical, lyrical duets, modern duets and a group dance. She finished the weekend with an amazing 7 medals!

Poppy’s sister, Violet, also competed in the competition and came away with 3 medals.

Well done on the competition, Poppy and Violet. Keep up the great dancing!

DT Parent Workshop

On Friday, the children invited their parents in to showcase their skills used to make a Greek feast – pitta bread, Greek salad and tzatziki.

Thank you to all of the parents/carers who came in to help! We hope you enjoyed helping and eating our yummy food!

Y3 – Fire Service Visit

Today, Year 3 children were joined by the firemen from Shropshire Fire and Rescue. They learnt all about fire safety, how to phone 999 and asked the firemen lots of interesting questions.
