Year 5 - French
In this French lesson, the children began by learning the names of different locations around school. They revised familiar phrases for saying their name, age and where they live then compared and contrasted British and French schools. The main focus was using the phrase ‘Je suis dans’, meaning ‘I am in’ and ‘Il/elle est dans’, meaning ‘he/she is in’.
Year 1 Science: Live Lesson with Steve Backshall for Oceans Week
Yesterday, Year 1 joined a live lesson with Steve Backshall to learn about the fish that live in the oceans. He was at the National Marine Aquarium and went underwater with his camera! We were able to see lots of different fish, eels, crabs and even small sharks. We learnt lots of amazing facts about the fish and he also told us about the importance of looking after the environment so that rubbish does not go into the oceans.
Year 6 Junior Jam - Music
Year 6's new music unit is all about electric drums. Today, the children learned that drums are one of the most important aspects of music, as they help to keep all of the other instruments in time with each other. They learned that drum kits are made up of lots of different types of drums, for example: kick, snare and hi-hat drums. The children then had a go at playing a set of electric drums with a partner.
