In computing this spring term we are learning to identify that accuracy in programming is important, create a program in a text-based language and explain what ‘repeat’ means. We have used logo to create basis shapes and Mandala patterns.

In Design and Technology we made Christmas stockings using a variety of sewing techniques.
We have been consolidating our knowledge of symmetry in Maths. We challenged each other to reflect our festive designs through a vertical line of symmetry. Do you like our Christmas symmetry-trees?

Stone Age Day
A Travelling Natural History Museum visited years 3 and 4 last week. Children had the opportunity to meet Cave Man Pete who showed them real and reconstructed artefacts from the Stone Age. They learned about the mega fauna Stone Age people hunted (and were hunted by)!
There was much excitement at the chance to take part in an archaeological dig and we were amazed to uncover the remains of a sabre tooth cat. Everyone had the chance to make plaster casts of fossilised animal footprints and to try out their archery skills. Under cover of darkness, the children recreated cave paintings based on photos of the Lascaux Cave. Stone Age jewellery was a real hit and children enjoyed personalising their necklaces with decorated 'bones' and 'teeth' made from card.
A fascinating and informative day was had by all!
