It has been a very busy week, but a fun one!
We’ve got into the Christmas spirit making cards using perspective and learning the new skill of “quilling”, this took a lot of patience and some resilience at first but the finished products were definitely worth it, we also designed our own calendars using collage.
In Geography we carried out a UK Comparative Study, looking at locality of two contrasting primary schools. We had a walk around the village looking at the number of cars we saw in two minutes and how many people we saw in five minutes along with the types of vehicles we saw around. We then visited Cottingham to do a comparative survey, we which all found very interesting. We then produced a variety of graphs to show our results.
BUT the children have enjoyed our DT project (Mechanism and Structures) the most, we have designed and built our own Beach Buggies with an electrical pulley system and pneumatic lift. This has definitely taken lots of teamwork, compromise and discussion within the groups and this has most certainly shown in the amazing buggies they have produced, they should all be very proud of themselves.
From myself and Mrs Campey we would like to wish you all a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a happy NEW YEAR!!!!!
