Class 3

Our new topic this term will be a Geography focus on Rivers.

We hope you have a lovely Easter! Here are some photos of us making your Easter cards. We discussed the symbolism on the card, the crucifix to remember the sacrifice Jesus made for us all and the egg shape and flowers to remind us of new life. 
 

The children enjoyed using a bi lingual French dictionary to look up words for their Easter French poem. Super confident work! 
 

We have been learning about seasonal British vegetables in Design and Technology. We have created stuffed peppers with the ingredients of rice, peas, courgette and some herbs. The skills we developed were grating cheese and chopping with a knife. We all tried our stuffed peppers and reflected on…

As part of our Design and Technology learning, we have made jam tarts today. We used the skill of rolling to roll the pastry and then used the pastry cutters to cut them out. We carefully placed some jam in the middle of them before placing a star on the top. We have learnt about how seasonal…
