Year 3 Forest School

This half term, year 3 have been showcasing their geography knowledge in the forest school area. Activities such as: creating a river out of tin foil and labelling the key parts, making a cloud in a bottle and using their maths skills to transport as much water as possible from one bucket to another has helped to consolidate their learning from inside the classroom.

Year 3 Easter Packaging

This week, the children have been designing and making packaging for an Easter egg. They have really enjoyed thinking and creating what they wanted their Easter egg box to look like and then creating it in real life.

The children learnt lots of fantastic skills such as cutting, scoring and assembling their net alongside strengthening their packaging by laminating (with an adult’s help of course!).

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!

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.
