We are monitoring our shadows over the day to see how far and fast the Earth moves around the Sun. 

Looking at clues to try and work out what our new book is about. 

We have been using protractors to measure angles 

Lots of focus learning to use protractors 

We have been investigating meteorites and how they have formed the surface of Mars.

We have been using text to create poems today.  Please see the pictures of the fun, creativity and mess we have made. 

We have been learning about the solar system and creating posters about the planets 

Today we have been discussing protests and thinking about what matters to us. The children are researching and designing their own protests. 

We are working with local poet Kate Smith and Charlotte from the Sankey project. We have done some automatic writing and are working on a poem together. 

We have been listening to bird song on the school field and trying to identify the different birds. It was a lovely few minutes of nature and mindfulness 

We are working on our animations with the Sankey project adding colour tinting and movement. 

We began the day with some relaxing and meditation for mental health week.
