For our class Assembly we reflected on the work we have done so far for our ‘Amazing Me’ topic and how we can be good learners.

1L’s Winter Walk
This afternoon, we went on a lovely Winter walk.
What did we wear? What did we see? Tell someone at home about our Winter hunt using the photos to help you.
Our Maple Tree!
1S Winter Walk
Today we wrapped up warm and braved the windy weather to go on a winter walk. As part of our science learning we have been tracking the changing seasons and identifying signs that show these.
Take a look at the pictures below. What signs of winter did you see? What were people wearing? How did it feel when you were on the walk?
We also stood under the same tree as our Autumn Walk to identify how it has changed since last season. What do you think? What is the same or different about the tree now, compared to when we saw it in Autumn?
Sorting animals
Today in Science we began comparing the similarities and differences between animals, including humans.
First we thought of and shared our favourite animal using the word ‘because’ to say why. Then we looked at 5 different classifications of animals:
Reptiles, Birds, Mammals, Fish and Amphibians. We identified which group our favourite animal belonged too.
Next we sorted different animals according to our own questions. Take a look below to see how the children decided to sort the animals.
Can I fly? Do I live under water? Do I eat meat? Am I a mammal? Am I warm blooded?
The questions were very interesting. Can you think of anymore questions you could ask as a way to sort animals?
3L’s continuous line drawings
Inspired by the Tate’s #drawjanuary challenge this week, 3L did continuous line drawings of an assortment of shells.
Making 3D shapes
We made nets to create different 3D shapes!

Red Class: 3 is our magic number
This week we have been thinking about the number 3. We used our whole bodies to count in 3’s. Get us to show you how…
1-1 arm up
2-2 arms up
3-both arms down and hands on your head
all together…1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
We counted objects and practised writing numbers 1, 2, 3
Here is a song to help with your counting in 3’s
Using the PE apparatus 1L
This afternoon, we explored the apparatus! We climbed, jumped, balanced and rolled.
What did you enjoy the most? We are looking forward to next week already!
1S Boom Whackers
In 1S we have been learning to play the Boom Whackers. This week was only our second lesson but we were so impressed with how well the children were listening to the rhythm of the songs and playing the notes in time.
Below you can see pictures of us ready to play:
Here is a little sneak preview of some of us playing the Boom Whackers too. We all had a turn of today but not all of us were filmed. If you weren’t filmed today keep an eye out because next time it will be you in the video!!
(Warning: The video may make you a bit dizzy and will definitely make you smile!!)
