For our science lessons this week we were getting to know the trees in our school grounds. In pair, we chose a tree and we are going to observe this tree throughout the whole of the year to see if it changes.
Our first Magpie art lesson this year saw us taking lots of time and creating our very own Magpie feathers.
What a fantastic year the Polar Bear class have had.
Next term, the classroom will be the same but the class name will change.
We will be turning into the 'Magpie' class.

Following up from the drop in about the phonics screening test click on the document at the bottom to see a list of some of the apps we have been trialling to help support the learning of phonics in a fun and engaging way.
If you weren't able to come and see us at the drop in - take a look and feel free to talk to us next week when we return to school.
As well as the apps there are other resources we often use.
Practising phonics with the Alphablocks!
Why not try to grab a few minutes with your child to watch and discuss some of these videos? You could write down the sounds in each video and make up words together afterwards!
On June 11th the year 1 children will take part in a Phonics screening test.
Congratulations to the Bride and Groom.
What a wonderful day we had at Wollaton Hall
The F2 polar bears have also been very busy in the Foundation Unit.
They took advantage of some very big boxes and turned them into a mega-castle, complete with working drawbridges. The children had been taught how to make drawbridges a couple of weeks ago and it was fantastic to see them applying their knowledge. The F1 children joined in to and had great fun playing in the castles once they were finished. Unfortunately the castles were also destroyed in a day as they were having soooo much fun!

As part of our Topic this term we took a look at The Bayeux Tapestry.
Our classroom has been turned into a castle ready for all of the Kings and Queens, Princes and Princesses, Knights in shining armour and don't forget the inevitable Dragons that go hand in hand with all of that!
Having some bubbly fun !
