Badger Class News 07.11

Dear Parents and Carers,

We’ve had a fantastic first week back after half term and it’s been lovely to see the children return with such enthusiasm and focus!

  • In English – When we arrived on Monday, we discovered a mysterious golden rope hanging in the classroom with a note attached. Using our predicting skills, we discussed who could have left it and why. This led us to our new class text for the term: Arthur and the Golden Rope. The children are already excited to explore the story further!

  • In History – We learned about Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot, discussing what happened and why it is remembered today. The children then created their own comic strips to retell the key events and show how Bonfire Night is celebrated now.

  • In Science – We explored vibrations and how they create sound. The children experimented with objects to create sounds of their own and used their observations to explain how sound travels.

It has been a great week settling back into routines and learning together. We are very much looking forward to the term ahead!

Best wishes,

Miss Benfield & Mrs Green
