We had a lovely time on Wednesday learning about all of the different musical instruments that Jim brought in to show us. We enjoyed listening to what the instruments sounded like and learning about high and low pitch. At the end of the session we learnt how to play ‘Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star’ on the Boom Whackers.
Today, we worked as a group to retell our story using the instruments. We thought about the musical elements needed to retell the different parts and we did an amazing job!
Captain Green had commissioned the children to organise a party on the last day of term to celebrate how hard they have worked on helping him to save the planet. They produced invitations, thought of party activities and created their own costumes using the principles of the three R’s.
We learned about Remembrance day and made beautiful poppy suncatchers to put on our windows.
We have had loads of fun today participating in a variety of activities linked with our focus story ‘The Three Little Pigs’. We created houses, identified the initial sound in some of the words from the story and played ‘Hot Seat’.
We loved listening to the story of ‘The Three Little Pigs.’ Following the story, we hot seated the characters, made the three houses and practised initial sounds, spelling and letter formation.
Children in Year 5/6 were given the task of creating a 2D shape related board game for others to use. All children involved enjoyed the challenge, showing their creativity and excellent collaboration.
