On Monday 14th November, we had the animal zoo workshop visit our school, We had an amazing morning. While being able to see different animals, we were informed about their habitats and what they would eat.
In DT, we have been researching different Bug Hotels. We will be starting to produce our own Bug Hotel. We cannot wait to show you all the outcome. We will be looking for different resources to use for this.
In Geography, we have been using aerial photographs to create our own map of the school. We looked at photographs of each classroom and used different symbols to represent these, ensuring we labelled it using a key to show what each item was representing.
In History, we focused on Remembrance Day and the importance of this day.
On this day, we visited Great Bentley memorial.
In Science we have been looking at micro habitats and mini beasts. We went on a hunt around the school grounds to see what we could find and drew the habitat and the mini beasts that we saw in our books!
Our Spring term context for learning is
Towers, Tunnels and Turrets
Here are some of our pictures from our school trip to Mountfitchet castle.

This is just to support their learning and get them use to the question types, please remind the children this is just to show what they know, if they get stuck please guide/help them with the questions!

PSHE
In PSHE we have been discussing stereotypes. By discussing how we can have similarities and have difference between us all but still celebrate and have pride in everything we do has been fantastic to see.
