Last week Dosbarth Mrs Curtis joined forces with Gladestry Church in Wales School and took part in the Royal Academy of Engineering Collaborative Project 2022. Each group worked on a design for their own inventive marble run. We were so proud of how well the both schools worked together and finished their challenge in the time given. On Friday afternoon we joined in the live presentation and were awarded the Collaboration Award and have won a 3D printer for school. Da iawn pawb!!!
We have been developing our coding skills using the Bee-Bots and Spheros.
Dosbarth Miss Powell have been exploring ‘The Scream’ artwork by Edvard Munch. Learners then created their own interpretation to depict a rollercoaster ride!
We have had some class caterpillars growing and have been able to learn about the life cycle of a butterfly. It has been really interesting!
Over the last couple of weeks we have been learning about shape!
What an awesome day! Of course Dosbarth Mrs Curtis and Dosbarth Miss Powell had to visit a theme park, as part of our ‘Theme Park Thrills’ learning theme. It was brilliant to observe the science in real life, and have lots of fun! Da iawn pawb!
On our welly walk today we visited Esco’s to find out about the local food they sell to support out learning of growing in the local area.
We have been learning about planting and growing in the local area and went on a welly walk around some of the gardens of New Radnor with the kind invitation of the garden owners. It was interesting to see what each garden had to offer.
Dosbarth Miss Burgoyne had the opportunity to harvest some of the crops we have been growing in our class garden. We washed the lettuce and then made some tasty salad sandwiches to eat… yum yum!
Dosbarth Mrs Curtis and Dosbarth Miss Powell have applied their understanding of how rollercoasters operate to begin creating their very own rollercoaster. Lots of fantastic discussions, explanations and teamwork.
Diolch yn fawr i Kate Matthews-Jones for the foam tube insulation.
