Saxon/ Viking dance

Here we are striking poses for the opening of our Viking/Saxon dance...

Displays in and around our classroom

Art

For our art,  we have been working in small groups to create collages of the helmet found at Sutton Hoo. 

Here are some photos of what we are working towards creating. 

And here are some photos of us in action...

(We haven't quite finished them yet so I'll post some photos when they are completed.) 

ICT

This week we have been investigating e- safety websites. 

We are identifying what makes an effective website aimed at children, as well as learning about keeping safe when using the internet. 

Dance

Today we had our first dance session with Beth. Today Beth focused on getting to know the children and checking out their moves (which were ace!) and we started to put together a routine to Uptown Funk. We will be carrying on with this routine over the coming weeks but also focusing on our main learning which will be an Anglo-Saxon inspired routine. 

Our fossils

Here are some of our fossils we created using clay and plaster of Paris. We thought about how fossils are made over a very long period of time as we carried a similar process but in just a few minutes! 

The picture isn't great, but if you look closely you should just be able to make out some prehistoric creatures. 

Caythorpe jigsaw puzzle

In our corridor, above the hall door, the whole school jigsaw puzzle is finally up. Children have been eagerly looking up, trying to spot their puzzle piece. 

Thank you to Mrs Laing who helped by creating the large colourful school logo.
