F2 - Den Builders

We have had a brilliant and busy week in F2! We are learning about lifecycles and have been looking at the lifecycle of a plant. We are growing our own cress seeds.

In number time we have been looking at money and solving problems using coins.

We have had more success with our gymnasts! Well done to Olivia, Oliver L and Sofia on achieving their Badge 8 and Proficiency Certificate.

We had a brilliant time on our Den Day. We split into teams and worked together to make different dens. There was a lot of excitement and wonderful discussions and language! One team made a castle, another had keys and one group had a ‘window’! We used an impartial judge to pick the best team - they chose the Red Group. Well done, Red Group! We then enjoyed some tasty treats before dismantling the dens. We had lots of super helpers. We hope we have raised a lot of money. Donations can still be given to the school. Thank you to all who have been able to donate.

SPORTS DAY - Weather permitting our sports day will be on Monday 19th June. The children’s PE kits are in school, so we will get the children changed here. Please bring a coloured T-shirt/item of clothing on the day.

We had some exciting additions to our classroom on Friday...Caterpillars! We were amazed, on Monday, when they had already doubled in size!!! Wow! They are growing so fast and we can’t wait to see them change into butterflies. Watch this space…

We have some budding musicians amongst us - just take a look at our ukulele players. Langold Dyscarr Community School has talent!

This Week in Year 4…

It has a been a week of ups and downs this week especially in English as the class have been writing their independent explanation text on: How to look after a dog, for beginners. This was followed by Mr Hays giving them all a SPaG test to really see how much they have learned throughout the year! It is safe to say, now that they've been marked, that they have retained so much information!

In Maths we have been looking into the relationships of factor pairs and weedling out the numbers that only have themselves and 1 as a factor... I wonder if any of my class know the name of this kind of number?

During topic lessons we have discovered the delightfully cruel nature of King John in the middle ages. The children were amazed at how utterly selfish and single-minded he was. But they were equally amazed that the Magna Carta that he signed still has some uses for our society to this day!

But the highlight of the week was in their music - Brazilian Fever was much in evidence. Year 4 were given the opportunity to learn Brazilian Drumming - and boy did they enjoy it! Some of our children will be performing at the Canch on Saturday morning at 10:00am, in association with the KURB (Kindness and Understanding Beats Racism and Bullying) project. Other schools will be taking part and performing, too. Please go along and show your support, if you can. I can certainly recommend the performance!
