The River
Dosbarth Miss Powell have worked so hard to produce brilliant river themed poems based on ‘The River’ by Valerie Bloom. A superb use of metaphors, alliteration and rhyme! We then applied our watercolour techniques and created a river scene. Gwaith anhygoel pawb
Letters to Santa!
This week Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been writing their Christmas letters to Santa. We then posted these on our welly walk which the learners were very excited about!
Christmas Biscuits
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy baking and decorating some Christmas biscuits this week, as well as creating other Christmas crafts to sell at our Christmas Fair on Friday. The biscuits smell delicious… don’t forget to come along if you can!
Jam Making
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy making blackberry jam.. yum yum! We went on a welly walk to pick the blackberries and then froze these. Last week we worked together to make our jam using our mathematical skills to carefully measure out our ingredients, and our literacy skills to follow the recipe. This week we tasted it on some bread and it was delicious! We linked this to our Stone Age theme by discussing how berries were part of the Stone Age diet.
Cave Building
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been busy working in teams to build caves and acting out what life was like in the Stone Age. The learners did a great job!
Football
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been learning football skills this week for the World Cup. We have learnt to pass, receive the ball, dribble and score a goal. We also watched part of the Wales vs Iran match, created a World Cup bookmark and came to school in red to support Wales.
Maths
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne have been working hard in Mathematics and Numeracy this week. Some of us have been learning our number bonds using our problem-solving skills to work these out, and others have been learning to add 10 onto numbers.
Blwddyn 4 went on a ‘Spider Hunt’ to practise the 8 times tables today. Learners were very disappointed to discover that the spiders were not real!
Music
This afternoon we had our third music session with Mr Burrows in Dosbarth Mrs Smith. We have been studying music symbols and looking at graphic notation. Today all learners created their own sound and put these together with the rest of their group. We are looking forward to hearing their performances next week
