In PSHE and Science, we have been learning about the human body; how it works and how to look after it. We have been thinking about healthy lifestyles and finding balance as well as what makes a healthy meal and how exercise can help us. We have been using what we know and creating poster to share our knowledge. Here are some of them:

We were luck enough to have OCRA visiting school today and running a quad athletics session with us. We completed the following activities; sprint, standing long jump, vortex throw, and longer distance run. 
All the children really showed their sporting abilities and it was lovely seeing them really shine. Here are some photos:

It has been a lovely warm start back to the last half term. The children have settled back in to routines and we have started our new learning. I am really sorry but we have not managed to get any photos this week as we have been so busy!
In English, we have started reading 'The Lost Thing' by Shaun Tan. We have been exploring the characters, writing character descriptions and using adjectives, similes and metaphors. 
The story was also remade into a short film which we will be using in class to help us with some writing. 
In History, we are starting to learn about the Shang Dynasty, this week we learnt about how Shang people would make decisions, and why they wrote on turtle shells. We are really enjoying the book below which is helping learn new facts in an interesting way!
