Oak Class Worship
Thank you to all those parents who were able to attend our worship this morning - the children were FABULOUS! And for those of you that were unable to make it, here are a few pictures to give you a flavour of our morning.
Class Teacher: Mrs. Piggin
Support Staff: Miss Kearsley
To help keep you up to date with everything that is happening this half term, take a look at our latest newsletter!
What a fabulous start we have had to the final half term. We have made a great start on our English unit - have mapped out the story of The Three Bears and we are now getting ready to write our own versions.
In History, we have learned about Christopher Columbus and his journeys across the Atlantic Ocean - thinking carefully about whether he was a hero or a villain.
The highlight so far though, has got to be our trip to Rock and River! We had SOOOOOOO much fun canoeing, den building, shooting arrows and exploring the surrounding natural environment. We had a fantastic, fun, full day of learning...check out the pictures!
This term in Science, we will be learning all about animals including humans. We will learn how different animals are grouped into mammals, fish, birds, reptiles and amphibians and will explore the characteristics of each group. To support this unit, Chester Zoo will be visiting our school to run a special outreach workshop which we are very excited about!
We have been learning about the Danish inventor Ole Kirk Kristiansen who invented Lego. We have great fun exploring the properties of the plastic bricks then inventing our own Lego designs.
PE days this term will be:
Monday and Friday
Can I ask that all children come to school in their PE kits on those days and - no jewellery please!
Autumn Term
Come and take a look at our learning in the Autumn Term. We learned all about Plants in Science, thinking about the different types of wild and garden plants that can be found in the UK as well as exploring deciduous and evergreen trees. The knowledge mat for the unit can be found below.
During the Autumn term in DT, we will be developing our cutting and sewing skills through evaluating, designing and creating our own bunting and in History, we will be learning about how life has changed in Leyland through researching local transport, buildings, employment and education. We will be going out and about to see for ourselves what fascinating history Leyland has to offer! Everything you need to know to support your child's learning in these topics, can be found in the knowledge mats below.
Please see below the slides from our recent Meet the Teacher Evening. For anyone that missed it, you will find all of the information you need about Oak Class and what your child can expect this year.
