Sports Day!
We had lots of part taking part in different activities.
Big Draw
Drawing to represent ways to protect our environment. We used chalk in the playground!
Alma Thomas
We used a sponge dabbing technique to create abstract prints inspired by the work of Alma Thomas.
Picnic
We made wraps for our picnic! We chose from ingredients such as falafel, hummus, tuna, cheese and salad to create our very own delicious wraps.
Fruit Parties
We learned about what parts of the world different fruits grow in. We then made colourful fruit head bands for our fruit parties.
London Landmarks
In Literacy, we read the story Katie in London and used our bodies to retell the story. We used our bodies to make famous landmarks visited by Katie. We love learning through drama!
London Walk
We went on a trip to visit the famous landmarks of London. We got to see the Shard, Monument, City Hall, Tower of London and the Gherkin. We also crossed Tower Bridge and saw the River Thames.
Forest School
For our Forest School session, we talked all about plants. We planted our own runner beans in pots. We were able to compare the growth of runner beans in plants pots, compared to runner beans in plastic bottles.
Runner Beans
We investigated how runner beans grow. We took steps to grow our own runner beans in plastic bottles. We then wrote instructions on how to grow a runner bean plant.
Challah Bread
In RE we talked about Shabbat and what is included on a Shabbat table. For our Literacy lesson we follow instructions on how to bake challah bread. How delicious does it look?
Star of David
As an introduction to our RE topic of Judaism, Willow class made Star of Davids to recognise and portray the importance of this symbol of Jewish identity and Judaism.
Kenyan Landscapes
We have been reading and adapting the story; Lila and the Secret of Rain in our Literacy lessons. We have described Kenyan villages, where the story is set. Following on from our Literacy lessons, we created a collage of a Kenyan landscape in our Art lesson. We used a gradient of different colours to represent the land, mountains, the sun and the sky.
Measure
In our Maths lessons we have been learning about standard and non-standard units of measurement. We enjoyed a practical lesson, where we measured the length of different objects in our classroom.
Barbara Hepworth
We created abstract sculptures using different shapes, inspired by the work of the famous sculptor; Barbara Hepworth.
Thank you…
As part of our PHSE lessons, we discussed the role of the special people in our lives and how important they are for us. We made cards to say thank you for all that they do for us.
All about Hackney!
We worked in pairs to create posters for tourists. We included all the things you can see and do in Hackney to persuade the tourists to visit the borough.
Forest School
Here are some photos of us exploring different activities at Forest School…
Guess the shape!
We played Maths games to secure our knowledge of 2D shapes. We had to describe the properties of our chosen shape so that our partners could guess and name the shape.
