Investigating Friction
Larch class have been investigating which surface is best for a toy car to travel across.
We predicted, tested and then evaluated our work.
We had lots of fun!
Fir Class are superheroes!
What an busy first few weeks Fir class have had! We have been learning about place value in Maths, we have started our new topic in history ‘the great fire of London’ and in English we have been studying the poem ‘My Mother is a Superhero’ by Pie Corbett. We even had a go at writing our own superhero poems! 
Our solar system
Rowan class have been learning about Planets, in Science, this week. We talked about their features and the order they are in. During our lesson I showed the children, using sheets of paper how far apart each of the planets are. Here are some videos of the children participating in the activity. We had lots of fun! 😁
Busy fingers
Every morning the children in year 1 come straight in to their tables and get busy with fine motor skills activities.

Performing poems!
Today in Year 1 we have been rehearsing a verse from a poem in groups. We added our own actions then performed them to the class.
Art!
Today we have been exploring colour linked to the seasons.
Stone Age Timeline
In History, we have been thinking about when the Stone Age happened and where it would lie on a timeline. We spaced ourselves out on the field to help us understand how long ago it was. If you look closely, you can just about see Fletcher at the end of the field.
