Wednesday Word

Our learning this week…

In RE, we have begun our new topic ‘Prophecy and Promise’. This week we have explored the importance of Sunday for Christians, as a Holy day and we developed our understanding of some key Gospel quotes, considering how these words might bring comfort and inspiration.

In English we have been exploring the use of past and perfect present tense within our class text ‘Fox’. We have also been creating our own poetry based on the main characters of the story, Fox and Magpie. The children worked hard to use a range of adjectives and verbs to add interest to their writing.

In Maths we have been consolidating our knowledge of addition and subtraction in solving a variety of real life word problems. We have also been using estimating and checking strategies to ensure answers are accurate.

In History, we have been continuing our topic on ‘The Stone Age’. This week we have been exploring a range of artefacts found in an ancient burial site. We thought carefully about what the artefact might tell us about the lives of people in Stone Age Britain.

In Science, we have been completing our investigation to find out if people with longer femurs are able to jump further. The children were able to use their recorded results to draw their own conclusions. We have also been researching different types of ‘Animal Diets’ including, Herbivores, Carnivores and Omnivores.

Wild Animals – VR Experience! Supporting Science at Our Lady’s Monday 18th NOVEMBER

We will welcome into school a Wild Animals VR workshop from Education Group to work with Year 1, 2 and 3. (Each of these classes is learning about Animals this term, including Humans, so is fits beautifully with our curriculum.) We are really excited to bring to life our Science work with such a wonderful experience for the children. We are keen to bring as many learning opportunities as possible to Our Lady’s to widen the children’s knowledge, deepen their understanding and bring the world of learning to life in a way that will excite and engage them. To support us with this we are asking for a voluntary contribution of £3 per child from parents. If you are able to contribute, please go to your Parent Pay account where this donation will be added. Many thanks for your support. (The rest of the cost of the visit will be met by school.
