Year One and Year Two have been feeling very creative and have decided to use the outdoors in their recent Art and Design lesson. The children designed a picture that they could create using only the materials that they could find outside. Year One based their pictures on their topic of 'The Three Little Pigs' and Year Two created a picture linked to their topic of 'The Seaside'. We then made a list and went outdoors to scavenge and find all of the materials that we needed.
Brazil!
This week we have celebrated the FIFA World Cup. Our country was Brazil so we have been learning about the Amazon Rainforest. We've enjoyed lots of different sports and loved seeing so many friends and family at our KS1 Sports day. What a fantastic week it has been!

We have been celebrating Spanish traditions at Broadbentfold this week. In KS1 we explored la tomatina by making our own paper tomato crafts then reinacted the tomato battle out on the field! We cooled down with some sangria before learning the Macarena. Today we have learnt flamenco dancing and made flamenco art inspired by the dance. Enjoy the half term break year 2!
Let's go fly a kite
Year 2 joined all of Broadbent Fold to fly kites we had made to celebrate Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding!

We have been writing explanation texts to inform a superhero how to use a jet pack that we have designed. We made a 3D model of our jetpacks and tested our explanations with our partners.
Parkour
Today we experienced parkour in the hall. We were shown how to land correctly from falls and we used our gymnastics knowledge to climb and jump various objects. We loved it!
Superhero potions
In maths we have been learning about measurement. We have been measuring out different amounts of potions including potions to make us invisible, kind, strong and courageous. We have mixed new potions by adding amounts together.

What a fantastic time everybody had at our family activity this week! Staff and children are still talking about the fun they had in their attempts to make the most creative marble run. Quotes fom the childen included "It was a lot of trial and error but worth it in the end!" "My favourite part was building the different components!" "I thought today was awesome because everyone worked as a team with a smile." Mrs Anson, our expert scientist, reported "My group showed great determination and ingenuity.

We have had a fantastic day at The Bee Centre! The amazing Bee Keepers talked to us about how bees work together to produce honey and live harmoniously in their hives. We tried real honey and explored the bee garden where we planted some spring bulbs. We used our experience to write instructions before going to play on the adventure park. KS1 behaved beautifully all day and we are so proud to hear the Centre praise the children of Broadbent Fold.
