As part of our topic, Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have learnt about traditional Welsh foods and have carried out a small project on cawl. We worked in groups to design our own healthy cawl linked to our learning of healthy eating, and then made each of these to find out which was the favourite. We continued our learning of emailing safely and had the opportunity to email our parents to invite them into school to taste our yummy cawl. We have also been working hard to learn the names of some of the vegetables in Welsh. On our welly walk, we then went to buy the vegetables from Sharon’s shop whilst discussing the importance of supporting local businesses and finding out where some of the vegetables come from. Finally, we made the chosen cawl for our parents to come into school to try and it was delicious!

Teeth Experiment
As part of our learning about teeth, Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have carried out an experiment to explore the effects of sugar on teeth. We put an egg in four different liquids, these being water, milk, coke and fruit juice, and left them for several days to see if they changed. Before carrying out the experiment we made our predictions and then reflected upon our findings.
Storytelling Workshop
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.
