Kingfishers are enjoying this book as part of the school topic of ‘Dragons’.
Each week the chapters they read are used as a starting point to build on reading skills including; inference and retrieval. They are also developing their vocabulary and writing skills using what they read from the book as a focus.
Kingfishers talent show gave a fantastic variety of acts including dance, gymnastics, rhyming and singing. A great time was had by all including the judges.
Kingfishers demonstrate all they have learnt from PE lessons this term. Demonstrating coordination, spatial awareness, tactical thinking and perseverance! And having a great time cheering on their teams!!
Kingfishers have been learning about the colour wheel and exploring the impact of combining different colours.
They have learnt about the artist Sonia Delaunay and experimented with creating pieces using circles. Some even had a go at using a compass!
We used paints, pens and pencils and were very pleased with the outcome.
We also read the book ‘A life of colour’
Year 3 have been challenging themselves this week with some tricky maths; understanding column subtraction and addition. Making it into a game proved that maths is definitely fun!!
Every Wednesday Kingfishers watch the news. One week they were shocked to see the mountains of plastic ready to be recycled. They were even more shocked to hear that this recycling was often transported to other countries.
As a result, they have researched what we can do to REDUCE the amount of plastic we use.
They shared a story book with the whole school along with some videos showing the impact plastic has on Sealife. They spent time creating some persuasive writing encouraging everyone to reduce their plastic usage and ways in which they could do this.
Kingfishers presented their work in a school assembly.
