Learning Highlight of the Week

Class 1:  In Outdoor Learning, Class 1 enjoyed creating their own cave paintings.

Class 2:  Class 2 have been editing and publishing their first Stone Age story this week.

Class 3 & 4:  The learning highlight for Year 4 was their trip to the Hindu Community Centre. See page 2 for more!

Class 5: In History, class 5 have been learning about King Alfred the Great and his valiant defence of his kingdom. They explored how he secured peace with the Vikings and discovered why, out of all the English kings and queens, Alfred is the only one remembered as “the Great.” The children then wrote their own paragraphs about how they would like to be remembered in the future.

Class 6:  The children have been exploring proper and improper fractions this week.

Class 7:  Maths was also a highlight for class 7. They have been dividing fractions using the KFC method, which stands for Keep, Flip, Change.

Class 8:  Class 8 have been learning Bhangra dancing, a genre of dance originating in the Punjab region of India. Bhangra dances are often performed in circles, featuring energetic shoulder and arm movements. Using this as their inspiration, the children worked in small groups to choreograph their own routines based on the story of a farmer.
