Every child is being involved in the creation of 2 displays to show some of their learning about life in a castle and by the end of the week we will have a new display in each classroom to show for their efforts.
Alongside this we have been extending our Norman theme with a range of adult-led activities.
On Monday we looked in depth at the story of the Battle of Hastings as shown on the Bayeux Tapestry and used our measuring skills to see how far across the playground it would stretch.
Throughout the week in small groups the children will be having a go at creating a strip of embroidery to go with the artwork and completing some non-fiction writing about our local Norman building, Norwich Castle.
In maths we have been practising our reasoning and arithmetic skills and we have been looking in detail at the relationship between multiplication and division calculations (e.g if 6x2=12
then 12÷2=6).
In PE we continue to have some specialist sports coaches in to lead football skills workshops in a Wednesday afternoon. Unless it is raining these sessions take place outside so please feel free to provide outdoor trainers and tracksuit bottoms if your child needs them.
