Year 2 had lots of fun at the Halloween Disco! Can you guess what they have all dressed up as?

Year 4 have enjoyed carrying out an investigation into finding out the difference in sounds in the different parts of the school. Which areas had the highest noise?What was making the vibrations?

These fabulous pupils were chosen from each class due to their excellent behaviour for learning last half term. They have followed our values everyday and been role-models in school. As a treat they ate cake, donuts, fizzy pop and cookies at our very own brunch with Mrs Parker. Well done to everyone trying their best every day! 

Year 6 had the opportunity to use the iPads's AI tool to describe a creature they had drawn in the style of Shaun Tan. They were intrigued to find out what AI thought of their creature and used these details to support their creature descriptions. 

Dodgeball practise was lots of fun today. The children are really good at dodging and weaving and practised their throwing and catching skills. What a great active way to start a Wednesday morning. 

We had a spooktacular time at the Halloween Disco today.

Year 6 started our animal classification learning. We revised about vertebrates and invertebrates classifying whether creatures were mammals, reptiles, fish, birds or amphibians. We explored Carl Linnaeus' classification using genus and species vocabulary to further identify and separate species into groups.

Throughout October Curzon Ashton Football Club held a competition to design a matchday programme. We are delighted that our wonderful pupil Rosie was the winner and had her drawings on the front of the programme. She attended the match Vs Leek Town with her dad and the players signed her artwork. We are very proud of you Rosie and everyone who entered. Thank you to Curzon Ashton for making her day.  

Autumn 2-

Children are going to be learning in Geography about countries including significant landmarks. In science children will be learning how the ear works and how sound travels!

Of course children's violin playing will develop as part of their Music lessons.

In our new topic we will go back to prehistoric times when the earliest people lived on Earth. We will explore what life was life to live in the Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age. We will explore life as hunter gatherers and how people hunted and survived. Please see the attached home learing grid with all of our objectives for over the next seven weeks.

Also see the attached Home Learning Grid with homework tasks to select and complete each week.

We are very much looking forward to our Stone Age workshop on Wednesday 25th November.
