Symmetry

In our Mathematics and Numeracy lessons this week, Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about symmetry and have carried out a range of activities to develop their understanding of this. The learners have created some excellent symmetrical pictures using a variety of materials. 

Forces

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about forces and have been on a hunt to search for objects that are magnetic and non-magnetic. The learners did a great job of sorting these.

Welsh Cake Project

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy carrying out a mini-project on Welsh cakes in our Mathematics and Numeracy lessons. We carried out a tally in the other classes to find out which was the favourite Welsh cake flavour. We transferred this data into a graph/chart and answered some maths questions using this. We also made some posters for our stall as part of our planning time. We then made and sold our Welsh cakes to the children in the school and worked out how much profit we made, which was £18.37. We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who bought some Welsh cakes from us… we hope you enjoyed them! 

Dina School

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have all been very excited to welcome two of our newest members of the class. Dina and Wally have joined to help the children learn about all sorts of topics related to ‘Health and Well-Being’. This week they have introduced the ‘Dina rules’ to support the children in understanding why we have rules and how we follow these. Watch this space for more posts about our time in ‘Dina School’.

Outdoor Phonics


Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy outdoors in their phonics lessons. Some of these activities have involved the learners going on word hunts and practising to write words containing the sounds they have been learning using the chalk. Learners then worked hard to put these words into sentences.
