Nursery - Computing - Navigating purple Mash. Create A Stocking

In Nursery class this week we have been looking at Christmas celebrations. To tie in with this, the children decorated their own stockings on purple mash. The children have been learning how to navigate the draw function on this website, understanding that they need to scroll to find the different colours and making the link between the colour selected and observing the change in colour of their marks. The children made marks on their stockings in different ways, some children made lines and movements with their finger to create marks and others decided to tap the screen to create dots. They made some beautiful stockings!

Pre-School-UTW-Investigating Frozen Penguins

This week we have been exploring all about penguins, we have learnt that penguins live in the south pole where it is cold and there is lots of ice around. We have then explored ice but our penguins were stuck inside and we discussed how we can get them out. We used our hands to warm up the ice and watched it melt to free the penguins.

Year 5 R.E. - Sorting the Nativity Story into Matthew's Gospel and Luke's Gospel

In R.E we are learning about the Bible story of the Nativity. We have compared the story in the Bible to what we already know about the Christmas story, and found that some elements are in Matthew's Gospel (the three wise men) and some are in Luke's Gospel (the shepherds)! We then thought about why the two accounts are different, and the Gospel's audience and purpose .
