Chinese New Year

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about Chinese New Year. We read the Chinese New Year Story and carried out some maths around this to develop our understanding of ordinal numbers and number words. We also explored some Chinese items and created some Chinese dragon craft. 

Fossils


As part of our learning on dinosaurs, Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy making their own fossils, dinosaur bones and taking role as a palaeontologist. We have also been learning about Mary Anning and worked in groups to create some great fact sheets on her through our research. 

Dinosaurs

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have moved onto learning about dinosaurs as part of our topic and have had great fun using our imagination and creative skills outdoors. Using natural materials we found on our welly walk and some we already had in class, we created our very own dinosaurs. All dinosaurs looked different and were super! We then used these to develop our descriptive writing where the learners came up with some excellent descriptions of their dinosaurs.

Forces!

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning about forces and have carried out a range of experiments to explore these. The learners made predictions in which they then reflected upon after carrying out the experiments. There was some great thinking going on. Bendigedig Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne!

Outdoor Math

Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been working hard in their Mathematics and Numeracy lessons. Some of us have been exploring number bonds to 10 using natural materials and the part-part whole model. Others have been learning to subtract 10 from numbers they have found on their number hunt, using a 100 square to help.
