On Tuesday, Year 3 and Year 4 invited Gladestry Church in Wales Primary School over for the day. We created artwork in Expressive Arts, participated in Health and Wellbeing with netball games and finished the day with a brilliant Louby Lou’s Storytelling workshop based on Welsh Folk Tales, Merlin & The Red Dragon & Cantre’r Gwaelod. Dosbarth Miss Burgyone also had a fantastic morning exploring Dragons & Castles and Merlin & The Red Dragon! Dydd brysur! Busy day!

3D Shapes
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about 3D shapes and their properties in their Mathematics and Numeracy lessons. Learners have been on a 3D shape hunt around the school and village, sorted 3D shapes in different ways, made some 3D shapes using play dough and explored their properties, and they have used their knowledge and understanding of 2D shapes learnt from previous lessons to spot these on the faces of 3D shapes.
Teeth
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have continued their learning of teeth this week by exploring why and how we brush our teeth correctly, and finding out why our baby teeth fall out. The learners had the opportunity to practise brushing a set of teeth, following the golden rules that they learnt within the lesson to ensure they brush them properly.

5 Little Dragons
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have worked as a group to discuss possible sounds that a dragon can make and chose five of these to create a song. The learners then thought carefully about which instruments would be good to represent each of these sounds, using the instruments creatively to express their own ideas.
Welsh Dragon
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne wanted to find out why there was a dragon on the Welsh flag and have learnt about the story of ‘The Red Dragon of Wales’. We created our own dragons using natural materials, and then thought carefully about what we could say to our dragon to make it feel like it belongs in New Radnor, exploring the language of empathy. The learners did an excellent job of using their imagination and creative skills to make their own dragons and came up with great ideas for what they could say to it.

2d Shapes
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about 2D shapes and their properties. The learners have worked hard in a range of activities to explore these, such as a 2D shape hunt outside, making shapes using a variety of materials and recording their properties, sorting shapes and exploring tangrams. The learners used great problem-solving skills.
