Something strange in the neighbourhood (Year 3)

 Something strange was going on in year 3 today. The classrooms were taken over by some monstrous creatures. Year 3 have been reading Wolves in the Walls as part of our literacy unit this half term. We have enjoyed reading the story, however we haven't enjoyed being left waiting to see what would happen next. Today we discovered that the wolves were having a party, so we decided that we should join in with them. Everyone enjoyed the chance to have some popcorn and fruit as well as dancing to the music.

Little spiders in Year 1

Last week, Year 1 children looked at the structure of music composition using Bati Strauss’ method.

This method lets the children know classical pieces through so - called ‘’active listening’’ which requires performing easy rhythmic choreography to music using gestures and percussion instruments. The form of storytelling is often used. 

The children listened to ‘’La Basque’’- a baroque dance and were told a story about little spiders working hard to make their webs.

Year 1 Science

Year 1 have been learning about the different seasons in science. 

We learned about the changes we may see outside in spring and went outside to see if we could observe any of these changes. We noticed the leaves were growing back on the trees, flowers were growing and the weather was starting to get warmer. We learned that in spring the weather can change a lot so we kept a weather diary to record what we could see. 

Great work Year 1!
