To celebrate Halloween this year, Pumpkin Class had a Pumpkin Day!
We made Pumpkin lanterns and used the pumpkin puree to make delicious pumpkin blondies.
We also had amazing pumpkin craft activities. Take a look at us in our costumes!
Pumpkin class really enjoyed their reading celebration on Wednesday this week. We wanted to do craft activities so we made dragon bookmarks and tiny dragon pets. We loved using felt, sequins, glue and all things sticky! Here are some photos.
Pumpkin class celebrated Stanford Trust’s 300th birthday with cakes and special gifts from the trust. We all made a card to send to the trust and enjoyed a morning of art and craft, which we all loved.
Our Head Boy and Head Girl delivered our virtual assembly on Friday for Macmillan Coffee morning. They shared with the whole school how Macmillan came about and how the donations received from families help those that are currently suffering with cancer- Well done for delivering a fantastic 'virtual' assembly!
Recently, we spent our activity day designing, making and decorating models of castles.
We used recycled materials and began the day by sorting these into different areas of the classroom. After drawing our designs, we learnt how to choose suitable materials and tools for the making process. We had a lot of fun making and painting our models. Now we need to evaluate our models. Do you think we did a good job?
This week in Pumpkin class we have been representing numbers in different ways and comparing numbers. We love to work with a ‘Maths Buddy’ using practical equipment.
We have learnt to identify how many tens and ones in a 2-digit number! We can also compare these numbers using the words: greater than, less than and equal to. Next we are going to use symbols instead of words (>, < and =).
What do you think of our work?
Well, Pumpkin class had a fabulous first day back in school. We enjoyed seeing our friends again, exploring our new classroom and taking part in some great learning experiences. It’s so good to be back. Here are some photos of us enjoying our day. PICS
