It has been a lovely start to the half term in Sycamore Class. This week, we have had lots of opportunities to work collaboratively with our year group peers.

We have finished our pneumatic toys as part of our DT project as well as starting our new art project. In art, the children created some beautiful mood boards inspired by the rainforest. We then moved on to focus on key details from tropical animals by using view finders. The work produced from this has been gorgeous! Next, we will move onto transferring our work onto fabric. Well done everyone!

A wonderful first week back for Oak class! We celebrated St George's day by looking at how he first came to be a saint over 600 years ago.

We then completed some artwork based around him and created our own shields with some pictures that symbolise him, and also symbolise us.

We also had a fantastic design and technology day on Friday- we used a lot of junk materials to make our own playgrounds. We conducted customer research by looking at what the younger children would want, and then looked at some existing designs-we then spent all day cutting, sticking, tying, gluing and making. We had a blast making our playgrounds!

What a wonderful week we have had in Larch Class! The children have returned in good spirits and settled down well in our really short half term. We have also welcomed a new member into our class.

In our Guided Reading sessions, we have began looking at our Pathways to Read book for the term and began the week interrogating scenes from the film, UP!, before exploring the contents and index pages of the Usborne Illustrated Atlas of Britain & Ireland and developing our understanding of a wider range of texts. In our Writing sessions, the children have began generating ideas and enrichening their vocabulary in preparation of writing an under the sea setting description.

In Maths, we have refreshed our multiplication skills this week, multiplying two 2-digit numbers, as well as putting a greater focus on our multiplication tables - with the Year 4 Multiplication Assessments fast approaching.

Elsewhere, along with enjoying our PE sessions with Mr Kelly-Weekes, the children have been been introduced to programming and have enjoyed writing (and debugging) their own algorithms. We have also spent some time completing our pneumatic toys from last term's DT project, with lots of fantastic designs and creations.

What a brilliant start to our Summer Term, plus the sunshine has even come back!

We've enjoyed mixing colours and painting, finding different textures in the forest and programming our BeeBots!

From next week, our P.E. days will be Wednesday and Thursday and we will be focusing on Science - all about animals and their babies!

We are starting some learning about relationships by thinking about our families and friends, including how to be a good friend so if you have any photos that you don't mind sharing with us to be stuck in a big class photo album showing all our positive relationships, then please email them to me or send them in on Tapestry!

We’ve had a wonderful first week back for the summer term! We got creative this week and had an art focus. We were learning about mixing the primary colours to make secondary colours, creating texture using different equipment to paint with and then creating collages. In PSHE, we have begun our unit on relationships and thought about our relationships with different family members, how families can look different and then discussing our friendships in school.

We have had such a lovely week back in Willow Class. The children were so happy to be back in school and settled into the routines beautifully.

We have been talking about what it means to be ready, respectful and safe and what this looks like for us in Willow Class.

In our Maths, we have been looking at the composition of number 5. We have been exploring ways to recall the parts of 5, when 1 is part is not visible. The children have been using their counting fingers to show this.

We have come to the end of our Pathways work on the story Hattie Peck The Journey Home. The children have produced some wonderful writing all about the main character, Hattie Peck.

The children have had a great time helping to revamp and set up some areas in our outside classroom ready for the Summer Term. The Mud Kitchen and the Water Area are now very popular!

At Westfield we are keen to promote physical activity and positive mental health. Next week we will be taking part in ‘screen free week’ giving our children some space away from screens during lessons. It would be great if you could join in at home and maybe spend some time away from devices and play a game or spend some time outside having fun. Look out for a message from our School Council later this week with some other ideas!

Have a lovely week.

Miss Pope
