Dino Day!
We enjoyed a dinosaur exploration day. We hunted for fossils, identified different dinosaurs, looked at dinosaur skeletons and sorted dinosaurs into herbivores and carnivores.
We looked at an example of a good information page and talked about the features we would need to include. We talked about what we already knew about dinosaurs and what we could find out by looking at books and the internet. We then looked at non-fiction books about dinosaurs and shared facts we had found out.




Art
We used our sketches to design a tile to print. We then used our colour washing skills to create a background and collaged to add texture to our art work.
Beebots!
The Beebots have introduced us to coding concepts like sequencing, problem solving, and directional language. We experimented with our own coding, learning to 'debug' by identifying and correcting errors in our programs. We were then given a set of instructions to debug.




Wild Science
We had a visit from Wild Science and met a leopard gecko, a hissing cockroach, a royal python and a lion lop rabbit.



Hockey
We have started hockey this half term. We are working on being 'hockey ready' with our sticks, dribbling, changing direction, scanning around as we move, passing and receiving the ball with control.




Rockets
In D&T we looked at hinges and used these in our rocket designs.
Clay Bugs
We really enjoyed making clay bugs and sun catchers in the style of Andy Goldsworthy.
Wanted Posters
We read The Three Billy Goats Gruff and wrote a wanted poster using adjectives to describe the troll.
Firework Pictures
We created firework pictures using MS Paint. We learnt how to use the fill tool and select different brushes.
