Welcome to Owls Class

 

Curriculum Newsletters 2024-2025

To celebrate Remembrance Day today, we completed a variety of art and craft activities to commemorate the day. We held a one minute silence and listened to 'The Last Post', and the children showed lots of respect!

In Art this week, the children have made hedgehogs out of clay and they used sunflower seeds to make the prickles. They also coloured a hedgehog in and made the prickles with leaves. What amazing artists the children in Class Owls are!

In History, we have been learning about the Stone Age. This week, we made Stonehenge, using biscuits to represent the stones and icing sugar to fix the stones together. We enjoyed eating our creations at the end of the lesson! Yum! Yum!

In Music, over the last couple of weeks, we have made our own musical instruments, guitars and tambourines. We chose our favourite instrument and made our own tune up. It was so much fun!

In Art, we have been looking at Early Art from the Stone Age. We created a wash with paint and then used stencils to print animals and hands which reflect what cavemen use to paint.

In Maths, we have been learning about 2D shapes. We went on shape hunt outside and found lots of different shapes. We also matched different shapes and made a bus and used the jelly shapes to learn the shape names.

The children enjoyed their first week in Owls Class and have settled in really well. They have made some new friends and have started to build a really good rapport with the staff.

This week in English, we have been reading the story, 'Dinosaurs Love Underpants'. We used colourful semantics to match pictures and then wrote sentences to describe what was happening in the pictures. The children loved the story and did lots of amazing work!

In Maths this week, we have been counting and matching objects to numerals. The children used lots of practical resources, including numicon to develop their skills in this area.
