Good evening all!
We've had a very exciting week here in class 4. I asked the children this afternoon which activities they had enjoyed this week and was overwhelmed by their responses. Between them, the children practically named everything we have done this week; I'm so pleased we're keeping the children enthused and happy in class!
We began the week with a very exciting Monday! We designed, prepared and cooked our own fresh vegetable soups. I must say, we were very impressed with all the soups made. The children worked beautifully in small groups; designing and cooking as a team. They absolutely loved their soups too; they thoroughly enjoyed 'seconds'!! I will post some of the photos I took early next week.
Science was fun and exciting too! The children worked in small groups to investigate whether a sound becomes fainter with increased distance. We used body percussion, musical instruments and even homemade 'telephone' lines using plastic cups and string. We used different lengths of string and compared them. The children loved it.
Hockey and rugby continue to be very popular too! The children took part in mini tournaments in both sports. They have learnt so many skills and are developing a good understanding of the rules of each game too.
The children thoroughly enjoyed their art lesson with Miss Monday earlier in the week too. They have created some beautiful abstract designs using the paints; well done everyone!
We are all continuing to enjoy 'The Secret Garden'; the children love joining me on the carpet to share more of the story; story time has always been a favourite of mine!!
We hope you all enjoy a lovely weekend and very much look forwards to seeing you all again on Monday morning!
Mrs Matthews, Mrs Scott and Miss Hewitt
