Making straw oboes

 

We made our owns straw whistles and explored how we could change the pitch by changing the length of the straw. We had lots of fun exploring sound.

Basketball skills

We have been learning many new skills including dribbling, chest pass, bounce pass and defending. We got into teams and played our first game.  We developed our defending skills and worked hard as a team.

Come and see:Giving and Receiving

We remembered and celebrated our fantastic work in our come and see topic Giving and Recieving. We had our class collective worship to share our ideas, thoughts and prayers about how we can give and receive many great gifts. We reflected on St Paul’s advice and how we can go forth and give to others every day.

Our wonderful water inspired dancing

We have been exploring different dance techniques to represent water in the form of Rivers, streams, oceans and the water cycle. Today we explored isolation, canon and unison to create a short sequence with a partner using the piece of music The Blue Danube by Johann Strauss.  We will be developing these throughout the next few weeks.

Plastic Pollution: We can make a change.

After our litter hunt we were inspired to explore ideas about how to reduce plastic pollution in our local area and around the world along with the devastating effects it is having on our wild life, seas and oceans around the world.  Here are some of our great ideas and inventions.

Plastic Pollution: Is it a Problem?

Our visitors gave us some interesting facts  about the current problem of plastic pollution around the world today. We went on a litter hunt in our playground to see if plastic pollution is in our local area. We found many examples of plastic wrappers, bags and other litter which is not biodegradable.
