Today's English focus was character descriptions of a villain monster. We worked as a class team to match a picture to the correct description, then tried to write our own description of the monster Grendel. The class enjoyed reading each other's description and left positive feedback, as well as a comment of how to improve their writing. They enjoyed this lesson! 

Well done to these superstars!

In science, the class investigated properties of different materials focusing on magnetism (using magnets),  transparency (using torches) and hardness. We then discussed what material certain items should be made out of and why. 

Our Mental Health Practitioner visited Y6 to give the class strategies of how to cope with exam stress. Getting them ready for the SATs next week. These were really useful ideas to help us everyday, not just for a test. 

Year 6 have been working super hard this half term. They have been turning up to class early to access booster classes, worked with partners to support each other's learning and tried really hard to assimilate all the information they need to know for their tests next week. We are so proud of all their efforts. 

Reception have been learning all about plants and the things they need to grow. We have been reading Jack and the Beanstalk and have even planted our own beans. We are recording their progress in our bean diaries. I wonder whose will grow tallest?

Year 3 were superb bakers today recreating a Tudor recipe called Shewsbury biscuits. They enjoyed eating them even more.

We have baked, researched and been creative all morning in our Tudor Day. The children have made some fabulous pieces of work- some will go on our display some they will bring home in their packs. What a fun way to learn history. 

Year 3 look fabulous today dressed as rich and poor Tudors. 

Reception love their sessions with Coach Jess from City in the Community. This week, we were collecting cones Sonic the Hedgehog style.
