We have had a brilliant session this afternoon looking at how we can eatwell. We discovered lots of facts about food and food groups and why it is important to have a balanced meal.

Well done 5OP!

Wow…wow…wow… what a morning we have had in 5OP! The children were absolutely amazing as they’ve created a newspaper article explaining the Viking raid in Lindisfarne. We looked at what a good newspaper report would look like so we could try our own. All of the children were invested in the story of Lindisfarne and how it such an important part of history.

Here are a few examples of the reports created:

We have been really enjoying our music lessons so far! Out topic is ‘Africa’ and so far we’ve been learning a song called ‘Shosholoza’. It includes call and response and is the second national anthem of South Africa. The children have been fantastic with recalling information about the song – who sung it? Why did they create it? What does it mean?
Yesterday, we looked at three new terms: ostinato, mnemonics and polyrhythms. We had a go at playing our own polyrhythms using different instruments!

Well done 5OP!

Last week the children in 5OP had a brilliant time in Beech’s Base with Miss Lockwood and Miss Smith!
Here are some photos of what they got up to in the afternoon.
