Openzone at The Word

By K Holtham11th May 2023

Class 3 have had a fantastic time at the Openzone. The children have created their own Lego movies using the StikBot app and enjoyed watching their videos back.

The children also built Lego objects and programmed them to do lots of different things using the WeDo2 app. They were able to add flashing lights and funny sounds. They even made their Lego objects move!

Planting Bean Seeds

By K Holtham27th April 2023

The children planted bean seeds on Tuesday as part of our topic all about plants. The next day they found a ‘Top Secret’ envelope in the classroom – some children from Class 2 had snuck into our classroom to look at our bean seeds and left us a letter asking us to write them a set of instructions telling them how to plant their own bean seeds.

Class 3 did a fantastic job writing their instructions and included lots of imperative verbs, adverbs and time conjunctions! ⭐️

The Magic Box

By K Holtham3rd March 2023

Earlier in the week the children were very excited to find a box in our classroom, but not just any box – a magic box! We read the story The Magic Box by Katie Cleminson and the children wrote lots of imaginative suggestions about what could be inside the box and who could have left it there.

For World Book Day the children had a magic themed day. They came to school dressed as magical characters and enjoyed lots of fun reading activities throughout the day as well as a visit from Magic Andrew. They also did a fantastic assembly all about World Book Day! 🥳

Children’s Mental Health Week

By K Holtham7th February 2023

As this week is Children’s Mental Health Week we have been chatting about how it is normal to feel sad, anxious or worried at times. We talked about what we can do to help us to feel happy again. The children identified lots of things that make them happy, such as talking to their family and friends, doing fun activities at school, doing some exercise, watching their favourite TV programme, reading their favourite book or eating some nice food.

The children have also had a visitor from BlueJay Wellness who taught us lots of different stretches, breathing techniques and yoga poses. The children enjoyed working as a team to complete some yoga challenges.
