We were very privileged to visit Brighton and Hove Synagogue today. It was exciting to see all the artifacts that we have been exploring in class and to hear about the Jewish religion from a practicing point of view.
Today we had a special visitor who came to talk to us about water and how it is used and cleaned all over the world... and beyond! A huge thank you for this informative presentation and the generous donation of picture books which will be used throughout the school for many years to come.
Today we made clay pots for planting cress. We used clay because it's biodegradable. We were going to make our very own biodegradable plastic however, we learned that it is not as biodegradable as we first thought.
Today was Eco day! We learnt even more about plastic pollution! Did you know that by 2050 there could be might be more plastic in the sea than fish?!
Lodge Hill!
In Art, last half term, we explored the "Art of Display". We looked at the work of Giacometti and made our own "plinth people".
In RE we have been learning about Judaism. Today we explored Shabbat and the symbolism behind the artefacts used.
In Science today, we learned about the practical elements of digestion from mouth to anus and explored the different functions of each step.
Today we learned about types of teeth and how they impact what we can eat!
The children have been learning about Howard Carter this half term. Today they confidently shared their writing with each other and were able to project their voices and articulate so that the words were clear.
We have finished making our very own steady hand games in DT. Overall, quite successful!
In History, we have been exploring the chronology of Ancient Egypt. Why is there is 4'000 year gap in our timeline?
We have been enjoying learning about audio editing software. One website you can access at home for free is: Audiomass.co
