We have had a very busy week in Cherry Class this week! In RE we have been looking at what different roles and responsibilities we can take on as individuals and we learnt that we can all take lots on. This could be a friend, brother, sister, son, daughter and student...all at once!

In history, we have been learning all about schools then and now, what is the same, what is different and what we would like to try from schools 100 years ago.

In PE we have been focusing on how to travel across the room in different ways - including zigzagging! We have also been looking at how to balance and how we can balance in different ways. Also in PE we have been learning how to dribble a ball around other people, as well as learning which foot we prefer to kick with, and if we can throw a ball to a friend by using a chest pass!

We can't wait for another busy, but fun week!

Such a wonderful week in Willow Class and the children are working so hard in all of our activities!

We have been developing our writing this week ✏️ The children are fantastic at writing their names, using their name writing cards and using the Read Write Inc rhymes to help us to form our letters correctly.

We have also started to write CVC words using our phonics knowledge and the sounds we know to help us to write words.

The children have also been reading lots of words this week using our blending boards to sound out and read words.

We have continued with our Real Life Superheroes theme by talking about what we would like to do when we grow up! We looking at the roles of different people and talked about if we would like to do that job when we grow up! Then the children had a think about what they would like to be when they grow up and we had some some wonderful suggestions!

This week we have been working hard on sorting and grouping by colour and shape - looking for shapes in the classroom, matching shapes and using colour for our artwork.

Our Year 2s have been learning about greater than and less then with vocabulary of “fewer” and “more”. It’s also great to share what our sensory circuits look like each day - our children all working together or alongside one another to alert, organise then calm our brains for learning.

We also like to give a huge shoutout to the Midday team who support our children in the Resource Base - you make such a difference to our children everyday and they get so excited to see you both (and the lunches you bring!) You really do form such an important part of their journey at Westfield! Thank you Mrs. Sanders and Mrs. Bradley!

This week in Larch class, we have been busy.

In English, we have continued our work on the book Escape from Pompeii. We have been thinking about how the people in Pompeii would have felt and written letters in 1st person as the people during the time of the eruption. We have used descriptive vocabulary when describing the eruption.

In Maths, we have been looking at numbers to 1000 and discussed the correlation between our knowledge of 1000 and common measure conversions. We looked at how many millilitres are in a litre and how many metres are in a kilometre.

In the afternoons, we have been doing RE. We have been discussing sacrifice in Christianity. We learnt about the story of Jesus in the wilderness and discussed the link to lent and Easter. We discussed what Christians do during lent including fasting, giving and praying.

We were also given a presentation on sleep and screens by a visitor. We all learnt some important information about ensuring that we get a good night sleep and what time we should turn screens off before we get into bed.

A great week in Oak class!

We had a visit from a local PCSO about how anti social behaviour can affect people's lives.

Our writing continued by focusing on fronted adverbials-the children segmented their writing into parts and found different adverbials to start each section.

Our RE was learning about who gives us guidance, then looking at Islam and how the Qur'an gives guidance to Muslims.

What a wonderful week in Sycamore!

This week, the children designed their own character machines and then used AI to bring them to life. This exciting work inspired some fantastic noun phrases, which the pupils were eager to share and develop.

In our wider curriculum lessons, our focus has been on RE. Year 3 and 4 explored Christianity and discussed key messages from the Bible, while Year 5 and 6 considered the importance of rules and why they matter across different religions.

We are looking forward to shifting our focus to computing next week and can’t wait to see what the children will achieve!

For 'Move it Monday' we took song requests off the children and did some party dances. We danced and did the actions to superman, the macarena and the cha cha slide!

For our 'Tasty Tuesday' we cooked loaded potato skins and made our own sour cream and chive dip. The children thought these were really delicious! We also made moon sand, the children really concentrated on working out the correct textures this should be and enjoyed this activity!

On 'Wonderful Wednesday' this week we celebrated national lego day. We put out loads of lego, lego colouring sheets and crafts of cutting and sticking to create their own lego character.  We also did some active brain break exercises using lego videos on youtube.

'Thinking Thursday' landed on National Puzzle Day. We had a variety of puzzles out for the children to play with and even made our own puzzles using cardboard and colouring sheets with puzzle pieces on for us to cut out. We also used paper straws to construct different models using masking tape.

'Fridays Movie night' we watched Madagascar. As it was also National Croissant Day, we had these for snack with some strawberry jam - yum!  We also had a large roll of wallpaper on floor with marker pens that the children drew beautiful different pictures on.
