Dance Showcase JUNE 15th!
Practice goes on with our ‘I believe that we will win’ performance – this week we performed in front of the AfPE validator who was very impressed!
Eagle Owls
Eagle Owls have an edible lesson while learning about the mean or average
Eagle Owls always have a Skittle Math’s lesson when SATs are drawing near, both as a bit of fun, but also as a practical way of learning about finding the mean or average of a set of data. It just so happens that our data is edible! An educational tasty time was had by all!
A very sporty week!
Eagle Owls had an excellent time at their PGL residential experience just before we broke up for Easter. There are some photos of their time just inside the mobile if you would like to have a look at parents evening in the next couple of weeks! They will receive a USB of photos at the end of the year.
This week they have started to prepare for the Dance Showcase in June, and began to learn how to play Handball.
World Book Day and Animalium
Eagle Owls all thoroughly enjoyed World Book Day and created a book cover of one of their favourite books. We hope that you will agree they have done an excellent job!
They have also continued with their watercolours based on the book ‘Animalium’. Here
is a sample of some of their work.
You’ve already done half a year!
The whole school had a visit from The Yorkshire Building Society on Friday to help them think about managing money (RHE). In Eagle Owls the pupils really enjoyed planning their parties and all the exciting things that they could include. However they then had to add up the costs and multiply for the numbers invited. Following that they had some long division to do so that they could see how much they would need to charge per ticket in order to cover costs. It was really interesting and they had lots of fun!
We also had a team of very able mathematicians visit Norwich Cathedral to represent the school in a maths quiz. They were working in pairs and had a great time – well done!
Have a good half term break!
Eagle Owls have tried to complete their geography topic of the world’s Biomes. Many have managed to do so, even with the disruptions of the last two weeks. Well done. They have done their own research and then collaborated with a partner to share the information with each other and the produce their pages in their own way.
Animalium Art and Mindful colouring
Eagle Owls continue to look into ways of self help and this week were colouring (thanks to Twinkl) and listening to mindful music. It was very relaxing! What lovely quotes for them to think about as well.
They continue to impress with their water colour skills
and are working on their collaborative work on the world’s Biomes.
Water Colour Art
Eagle Owls have had a visit from Mr Kagimu, a very talented parent artist, who shared with them examples of his work inspiring them to create detailed work of their own for their book called Animalium. We are sure you will agree we already have many budding artists emerging!
Eagle Owls have also been researching Indonesia as their class reader Running Wild is set there. This ties in well with our geography topic where pupils are researching the world’s Biomes and the rainforest is an essential one!
