The Toy Museum
We have been finding out about toys from the past. This week Year 1 wrote descriptions of some of the toys for our class museum!
Leaf art
We have started to think about Autumn this week and we created some amazing animals using leaves and twigs we found outside!
Expressive portraits to show identity
Oak Class completed their final mixed-media piece of expressive art for the half term. The children were able to use a selection of the new techniques, that we have explored during this unit. Each child was completely independent in their final creations and showcased: monoprinting, layering,…

Oak Class proudly published their narrative openings for Macbeth! The children assessed their writing against our toolkits and gave feedback to their peers. To celebrate our finished pieces, the children read their work to the Year 4 children in Willow Class!
Greetings in French
In French, Year 4, 5 and 6 children learned how to exchange greetings with each other. We developed our pronunciation skills of the ‘ç’ sound in ‘ça va’ and matched expressions to the correct phrases in reading and writing!

In Wraparound, we had lots of fun playing the scarecrow game before painting bird houses!
Design Technology: Smoothies
It was a busy afternoon in Maple Class! There was peeling, chopping, slicing and juicing to be done before we could create some delicious smoothies! The children were a fantastic team but they were not keen on the sour lime or avocado!
Monoprinting

Toy Time Travellers
Today we had a visit from Lizzie from the Staffordshire History Centre. She took us back in time to meet a girl called Bessie who wanted to buy some new toys. We had the opportunity to play with some toys that Bessie might have owned 100 years ago! Our favourites were the acrobat and clockwork…
