We had an amazing time yesterday! We did so much learning and enjoyed exploring all the steam trains. Especially the North Star – the fastest train of its time :)
We love sharing our homework every Monday. Here are a few from our topic on the Iron Age :)
For our English lessons this week we are writing a Christmas poem.
To help with our creative writing we had a lesson exploring all five senses with Christmas related items!
We had such a wonderful and enriching week. We designed and made our willow fish and then composed music to go along with our scene. We are very proud of our efforts :)
The lovely students from Stroud Collage came into school today to show us some of the wonderful animals they look after.
Ruby class took a trip to Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens where we got to learn all about animals and their habitats. This is part of our topic ‘Our amazing world!’
In Art last week Ruby class were looking at the northern lights – using chalk we created some of our own.
This week Diamond and Ruby class have combined their English and Science. This term we are reading the Iron Man and learning about light. As a result the children have been making their own Iron Man shadow puppets. We have learnt how to make shadows and tried out different light sources. We then learnt about the history of shadow puppets and had a go at making our own. Next week we will be making Explanation texts in English to explain all about our Shadow Puppets.
What a great time we all had on our year 4 overnight stay at the climbing centre. We were all amazed at how brave, courageous and fearless the children were in climbing up so high! They also had a great time in the caves as well as eating lots!!
Ruby and Diamond class have been learning all about writing and preforming play scripts this week!
They then created their own scripts for the book ‘room on the broom’.
We then rehearsed and preformed a script using props and our super acting skills to Rainbow and Sunshine class!
Preforming our playscripts!

Stroud College came in with a single spider, a tortoise, 2 snakes, giant African snails and beetles, water pythons that was a black a poisonous spider it did bite, they had mice I got to hold one it was soooooo cute. But not cuter then my three rats.
I got to stroke a snake, it feels so weird it feels wet, both of the snakes felt the same. The mice felt soo fluffy but not fluffier than my rats. There was geckos, they were yellow and spotty.
There was a really big lizard I had no idea what it was, the turtle was really lumpy its shell felt weird its skin colour was all brown my favourite animal was the spider it was so big
