Cedar Week 3 Summer 2 w.e 21.06.24
Posted: Jun 18, 2024 by: Mr Dring (p.dring) on: Cedar Tree Class
Hello
Another great week of learning this week.
In English, the children have finished drafting, editing and publishing their diaries linked to our Ancient Egyptian unit. In Maths, we have been exploring a variety of angles (acute, right, obtuse) and symmetrical shapes. In Reading, we have continued with our 'Cat Mummy' novel and the children keep complaining whenever we have to stop - so it's a sure hit! In Art, we are preparing to make our clay 'masks' inspired by the Ancient Egyptians. In Computing, the children have been fascinated to learn more about what the internet actually is and how it works through a series of routers. They got themselves quite tied up in knots whilst trying to connect using string (literally).
Thank you to those who were able to support the Year 6 'Grow a fiver' project - even the if the children did not have money to 'invest' in any of the projects they were extremely interested and asked the Year 6s many insightful questions about their 'businesses'.
The children were brilliant and showed great determination during the KS2 Sports Day - we hope you enjoyed watching if you were able to.
Attached are a series of photos from our Ancient Egyptian Art sessions where we used clay to make representations of ancient masks and mythical beings.
Have a great weekend,
Mr Dring
