Remembrance days

Barn Owls have found out about why we have Remembrance Day. It is 100 years since Armistice Day and we want to remember the soldiers from then and now who protect freedoms.

Our art work is part of the corridor of Remembrance that we have made...

We went to the War Memorial in the village for our Remembrance Service.

Osiligi Maasai Warriors

A group of Maasai from Kenya visited to share something of their traditions and culture with us, through dance, song big and discussion. It was an amazingly no experience!

The Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge

We have had a busy day, visiting this amazing museum.

First there were some world class art pieces to enjoy, talk about and draw. 

Then we spent some time looking at real Ancient Greek and Ancient Egyptian artefacts. One of the teachers at the museum helped us to understand what some of the Ancient Greek items told us about life in Ancient Greece and their beliefs and stories. The children were spellbound by the myth of Persephone.

Finally we were able to look around the Ancient .Egyptian artefacts. We could see how they lived from some of their models and we even saw some mummified animals from Ancient Egypt!

Amazing!

 

More Maths fun

Now we are using arrow cards to show the numbers that each digit represents. We had a race to show this, in teams; you can see how focused the children were- fierce competition!

Maths fun

In Maths, we are learning about numbers to 1000 and we have been learning how to show these numbers using Base 10 materials. Today we enjoyed a treasure hunt to find some Base 10 materials and work out which numbers they represented...

GoldenTime

We enjoyed our first Golden Time. Good learning behaviour and good work can earn us a marble in the jar. Every marble is worth one minute of Golden Time. This week we chose different activities in the classroom...
