December 2020 - Levers, sliders and joins.
We have had a great time exploring some different mechanisms. We enjoyed exploring moving books, cards, scissors and clocks. We even made our own!!!! We used treasury tags and a hole punch to create joins in the form of personalised chains, split pins to create a moving pair of scissors and moving hands on our clocks. We then designed, produced and evaluated our moving (sliders) Christmas cards!

WK BEG 9th November 2020
We have had the most amazing week learning about materials and conducting two investigations. We completed an ice experiment - we wanted to find out where in our classroom ice would melt the quickest. The children loved predicting what would happen, completing the experiment and then finding out what happened and also discussing whether our predictions were correct. We found out that the ice melted the quickest was the ice in the glass of water and the ice that took the longest to melt was the ice cube that was placed on the window ledge.
Our second experiment was to find out which material out of a selection would protect an egg if dropped from a height. The children were so excited to plan their experment and wrap their egg in a chosen material. We made predictions on which material would protect the egg fully and then we carried out the experiment. The children were so elated! We had a smashing (ha ha) time. The children could not wait to unwrap their eggs to find out which materials were able to fully protect the egg. We found out that 'bubble wrap' was the only material that protected the egg. All the other materials (cling film, bin bags, blu tac, fabric, foil and newspaper) did not protect the egg!

We have had so much fun celebrating Christmas in RE! We have listened to the story of the very first Christmas and role played the story in our small world and role play areas. We have written Christmas cards and posted them in our Christmas post box. We have created our own wrapping paper by printing paint. We have also been very excited to see what our cheeky elf has been up to everyday!

This week we started our D.T. project. We are looking at the mechanisms that allow vehicles to move (namely wheels and axles) and how they work. We are going to be designing and making our own small vehicle for a child to play with. Today, we investigated wheels and axles using kinex. In groups we had to build a vehicle with at least 3 wheels that would go in a straight line when pushed.

November 2020
This term 1C have been studying the work of a famous 'Pop' Artist called Andy Warhol. First we explored his work and found researched some facts about him. We then studied self portraits and used Ipads to take digital portraits of our partners. Using the digital images alongside mirrors, we sketched our own portraits; ensuring that we noted size, shape and proportions.
We then looked at complimentary and contrasting colours. We experimented with different types of media and chose some contrasting colours. This assisted us to when we came to choose our 4 favourite complimenary colours for our POP ART backgrounds. After this, we cut out our 4 self portraits and attached them to the backgrounds. We revisited the features of Andy Warhol's art and found that he used the colours from his backgrounds within his repeated images. We thoroughly enjoyed this topic!

Woodland Learning - making Christmas decorations
Date: 7th Dec 2020 @ 9:36pm
This week (7.12.2020) we continued making our Christmas decoations from a log. This meant, with the help of Mrs Hancox, that we had to use a saw to cut a piece of the wood for our decoration. It was quite hard work.
After we had cut out wood, we then went into the woodland classroom to paint our decorations. Mrs Simmons is so excited to see what we have created during our Woodland Learning time.

As part of our R.E. topic 'Christmas', we learnt all about Advent and Christingle. We wrote about Advent wreaths and why they're important for Christians. We also learnt all about Christingles, what each part of the Christingle orange symbollises and we even made our own Christingle oranges and got to eat the left over sweets afterwards :)

Today in yoga we began practising poses (child's, triangle, bird, moon). We had to concentrate hard and use our balance for most of them but it was a lot of fun. Some poses were much more difficult than others but we are sure we will get more confident the more lessons we have.

Today (Friday 27th November) we completed our Rita Greer inspired Great Fireof London artwork. We added tissue flames to our pieces which created a really effective fire.

4MB art gallery now open! We have created our final pieces using oil pastels as resistant and ink to create a colourful background. We have worked really hard to create our final pieces in the style of Gustav Klimpt - and what a great job we have done.

We used a variety of media to create a scene from the Great Fire of London.

We had our third cricket lesson today and we learnt how to bowl like a proper cricketer. Mr Rickman taught us how to stand and to try and keep our arms straight when bowling the ball. We did find this a little tricky but continued to persevere and both Mrs Simmons and Mr Rickman were very impressed with how focussed we were and how much better we got just in one lesson.
We had lots of practise and then played a group game where we had to bowl the ball into a box and try and hit the wicket too. It was a big challenge but lots of us managed to do it.
