Thank you to Louise from Pyjama Drama. We had a fantastic time using our drama skills to pretend Pinocchio went on a plane to Spain where he had a fantastic camping holiday, swam in the sea, went to a park and had a train ride. We role-played that we were Pinocchio in the ending of our story.
Mrs Rimmer started the day with Christmas songs in assembly and our very own Christmas Elf (Miss Bunn) has been in to help us make products for the Christmas Fayre! 2 weeks to go…!
Today, we were joined by Louise from Pyjama Drama. Louise worked with us to create a story about a family visiting a theme park and going on a rollercoaster ride. Here are some pictures of us acting out our story in our groups.
We’re almost ready to design our skyscrapers but first we need to know what types of structures there are. They’re all quite wordy and full of technical descriptions so we’ve had a go at building little models that represent the different types of structures, for example; braced frame, rigid frame, wall-frame, shear wall, core and outrigger, infilled frame, flat plate & flat slab, tube and coupled.
As part of our outdoor learning, we looked at what trees we have on our school grounds!
Today the school nurse taught us a song to help us wash our hands and get rid of germs. She brought in a special machine that showed up all the germs. She read us a story and checked that our hands were germ free. Bendigedig pawb!
We had Sara, the school nurse join us this afternoon to teach us the importance of washing our hands. We learned a song and tested our hands under a special light to see if we had any germs on them. After this, we used the song we had learned from Sara to wash our hands properly and tested them again under the special light. We were all amazed at how well we washed our hands as most of the germs had disappeared.
Reception have been learning to recognise and name 2D shapes. Here, they used the shapes to create a picture. The pupils talked about their shapes and named the ones they had used.
On Thursday Aderyn Du had Mr Burrows from John Beddoes Campus come into class to teach them about some music relating to China. They had a go at creating their own music using the glockenspiels.
As part of our Mantle, we went over to Brynny to measure the area and perimeter of the field. We used trundle wheels!
Ces i amser da!! = We had a great time!
