Throughout this term, SG has been delving into the world of angles within 2D shapes. Today, our focus was on regular and irregular polygons. They put in a lot of effort to identify right angles within different polygons. Afterwards, we used geosticks to experiment with creating shapes and figuring out their properties, determining whether they were regular or irregular polygons. It was a hands-on and engaging way to explore geometry!

Today, on World Book Day, SG impressed us with their fantastic costumes! We started our day with paired reading sessions to improve our fluency. It was great to see everyone eager to share their favorite stories. Later, we enjoyed a class read of "The BFG" and then spent some time designing our own book covers.
Today we had some very special visitors. SG had the opportunity to see two different birds of prey close up: a peregrine falcon and an owl. They were shocked to find out that peregrine falcons can dive at around 200mph! SG had lots of questions and really enjoyed the outdoor flying display too!Throughout our Netball unit this term, SG has been refining their passing abilities. Initially, we focused on mastering the chest pass, ensuring that each pass formed a distinct 'W' shape with our hands. Following this, we dedicated time to perfecting the bounce pass technique. Once confident in both methods, children challenged each other to see how many passes they could complete within a one-minute timeframe.
This week in Team SG we have been learning all about lent. We have challenged ourselves to carry out an act of kindness every day for 40 days. SG have also challenged Miss Groves to give up coffee and sweets for 40 days too!We kicked off this week with some PSHE! As it's Mental Health Week, our PSHE lesson focused on boosting positive emotions when we're feeling down. We discussed activities we enjoy doing for ourselves and others during tough times, and made our own cups of positivity to spread reminders of positivity to ourselves and others!
Today we had Pyjama day and visited the library. We went on a book scavenger hunt, explored various books, had a class reading session, and some of us borrowed books using our library cards! We did lots of reading and we were super cosy. |
