Year 5 performed and shared their enrichment learning this afternoon, along with the rest of upper Key Stage 2. They performed a shadow puppet show and guitars (Bruno Mars Uptown Funk). They really enjoyed sharing their learning with peers and teachers. They all did a fantastic job and have clearly engaged and progressed in their enrichment learning this term. Well Done Year 5!
This afternoon year 5 were very busy putting the final touches to their Hogwarts Style lessons ready to teach year 3 and 4 on thursday afternoon.
In wand skills we decorated our wands, finished translating our spell into Latin and created our wand movement!
This was one of the fantastic headlines created in year 5 today as we wrote newspaper reports about the Solar Eclipse.
We started the day researching and investigating the solar eclipse by writing a brief description of what happens and using diagrams to support our explanation. We also watched the eclipse live!
Miss Low set us the challenge of using the solar eclipse to inspire us to write! So for the rest of the day we planned and have started writing (very nearly finished!), our own newspaper reports about this rare phenomenon! At the end of the day we shared our work with each other.
We will share some finished results with you next week.
We’ve had a fantastic morning learning all about the solar eclipse! We watched a live video from the BBC, which showed the moment the moon obscured the sun from view. Later, we did some creative writing to consolidate what we have learnt!
Keep up the great learning Year 3.
From this week, year 6 pupils are becoming even more independent!
The children will be bringing home their close the gap plans on Friday, where they have analysed their learning and planned their own homework.
Close the gap plans need to be in school from Wednesday to Friday each week, so that they can be updated and reviewed in lessons.
As this is planned and owned by each individual child, year 6 homework will no longer appear on the website as it is completely personalised.
We look forward to seeing the children in charge of their home learning!
The sun was bright in the playground so we had great fun investigating the shapes that we could make with our shadows and looked at the way that the shadows moved throughout the day.
We were amazed by the knowledge that the children had about how shadows are made and why they moved!
A big congratulations to 2 boys from 5c who have achieved their Open, Grow, Believe badges this week. You have both opened your heart to Brooklands Farm, have taken big steps on your learning journey and are believing in yourself and others!
Well done! (p.s we loved the silly faces for comic relief!)
