We have had some fantastic costumes for world book day today! Class 3 have had a fantastic morning writing our own book reports and listening to lots of stories from many adults!
For World Book Day, Class 3 red the story of the Snail and the Whale. We then compared the size of a snail to the size of a great humpback whale.
We learned that snails are around 5 centimetres long (5cm), around the length of your thumb! We also learned that a humpback whale can grow up to 16 Metres (16m) long! A humpback whale couldn't fit into our classroom so we went outside and visualised just how long that really is! In Art this term Class 3 have been making tiles out of clay. We designed what we would like them to look like and then used a range of techniques such as kneading, pinching and scoring to mould our clay how we wanted. We then decorated our tiles with paint. Can you tell what animals we have created?
KS1 have been working their socks off over the last few months learning lines and songs words and we knocked everyone's socks off with our AMAZING performance! We danced and sang our hearts out and had so much fun doing it.
At Athersley South Primary School we are all ambassadors for kind words and keeping each other safe and happy. As part of anti-bullying week we all took part in odd socks day. We wore odd socks to show that we are determined to stamp out bullying and are working hard to spread kindness and happiness instead. This years moto is 'make a noise!' We all enjoyed dancing and singing along to the song and shared who we could 'make a noise to' if someone was being unkind to us.
As part of our Design Technology topic "A balanced diet" Class 3 have been tasked with designing our own healthy wrap for children to enjoy in school. We began by looking at the Eatwell plate and tried food from each of the food groups. After trying each of these we then created our own wraps and enjoyed them thoroughly.
As part of our Geography topic 'My World and Me' we have been looking at the different geographical features of the Earth.
We can identify the 7 continents and 5 oceans as well as where the United Kingdom is on a map. We learned that the Earth has North and South poles, where the weather is freezing cold. We also learned about the equator, an invisible line that runs across the center of the Earth - making the weather extremely hot as it gets the most sunshine! We also looked at the human (man made) and physical (natural) features in two contrasting countries - England and Equador. We then looked around out local area to identify some of the geographical features we could see around us. |
