Number Day 7th February
For number day we listened to a story called Alien Even and Alien Odd. Then we looked for odd and even numbers everywhere. We found out if we had an odd or even number of letters in our name and we had a ‘snowball’ fight to look for numbers. We even found odd and even numbers at snack time!
Children’s Mental Health Week
3rd-9th February
Sycamore Class have done some super work this week for children’s mental health week.
We started the week with a yoga session by Yoga Bugs based on the story from the film Inside Out 2. Then we took part in an activity to create our own personality islands.
Our trip to the Mosque 29th Jan
Take a look at the photos from our trip to the mosque. We had to take our shoes off as soon as we entered. We were very respectful and asked fantastic questions.
Great Fire of London Art Work
Sycamore Class have worked hard to produce some fantastic art work based on our topic of the Great Fire of London. We used chalk and pastels for the flames in the background of our scene and cut out houses using black paper to make the cityscape silhouette.
Anti-bullying week 2024
In Sycamore Class we thought about what happens to us when we say kind or unkind things to each other. We crumpled a heart every time we said something that wasn't kind and found out that once it's been said, you can't take it back and it hurts your heart.
'Before you speak, think and be smart. It's hard to fix a wrinkled heart.'
Odd Socks Day - Tuesday 12th November
SCARF workshop
Lucy and Harold the Giraffe were visitors to Sycamore Class for a workshop about feelings. We were 'feelings detectives' and we had to think about how children at a party were feeling using just their facial expressions and their body language. We discussed bullyin and how to recognise it. We also learnt about the human body and how we can keep ourselves healthy.
Queen Victoria's Bathing Machine.
In DT we made bathing machines fit for a Queen!
We designed the body of the bathing machine, then made the wheels, axel and chassis and attached them together.
