Curriculum Information

Welcome to Dragonfly Class

Science Week

What a great day we have had being scientists ad investigating which things float and which sink! We made boats of our own from tin foil and tried to work out which would be the best size and shape to hold the most coins.

Our Minibeast Hotel

On Tuesday, we walked up the forest school area and started to build our layer of the the minibeast hotel. It was great fun! We are looking forward to seeing what sort of creatures make it their home in the future.

Health Week

Health Week was great fun. We thought about how we can keep our bodies and our brains healthy. We had a session of 'animal antics' in the hall which was quite challenging for some of us. We visited the life Bus where we met Harold the Giraffe and learnt about feelings.

Lifecycles

We started our new mini topic on lifecycles straight after half term. Our butterflies arrived in the post on Tuesday and already fattening up. We helped to put up our new green house to keep our seedlings in. this week each table has planted a sun flower, a bean and a tomato seed. I wonder which will start to germinate first?

Summer Term

We arrived in school on Wednesday to find something very mysterious going on in our classroom. Some strange footprints, a tiara, a sparkly shoe and a great big mess! We think that there must be a dragon on the loose.

Easter Time

Have a great Easter break! These Easter bonnets should get everyone in the mood for Spring. Thank you for taking part!

Spring Term 2018

It has been great to get back to school this week and start our new topic Fire and Ice. There was a lost penguin in our classroom on Monday and we managed to find out where in the world she was from and how she might get back there.

We have learnt such a lot in just a few days.

Pancake Races

Although it is not quite Shrove Tuesday, we all had a great time yesterday racing with our frying pans.

Forest School Fun

We have been so lucky with the weather today. It was just perfect for our first forest school session this afternoon. What fun we had!

Autumn Term 2017

Our First Day in Dragonfly Class

We were all pleased to see each other after the holiday and we spent the first day thinking about how we wanted to behave in our new class. We wrote a class promise and started to make a huge dragonfly from our own hands.

Here it is!

Meerkat Mail

Our new text is Meerkat Mail by Emily Gravett. This week we have been getting to know the story in lots of different ways.

On Tuesday, we discovered that the main character 'Sunny' had been hiding in our supergrounds.

We went out into the school ground to look for him. It was a lot of fun.

Our Trip to Bristol Zoo

Platinum Award for Jessica - Well Done!

Baubles

What a great time we have had performing our Nativity play this week! The children have all played their parts wonderfully and contributed to a great show. Well done!
