Weekly Update 16.7.20

Posted: Jul 14, 2021 by: Mr Kyriacou (n.kyriacou) on: Willow Tree Class Blog 2020-2021

Hello everyone,

This week, Willow Tree have finished reading the fantastic final chapter of Stig of the Dump. The children have thoroughly enjoyed the story, but also have lots of questions that they would love to ask Clive King about the ambiguous ending to the story. They have also written some wonderful reviews of the book and as a class they have rated the book as a 4.5 out of 5 story.

In Maths, we have completed our unit of work on Geometry, which the children worked very hard on. The children were also given the opportunity to create a variety of three dimensional shapes using a variety of different materials and identify the faces, edges and vertices of their particular shapes.

As part of our Stone Age to the Iron Age topic, the children have been learning about StoneHenge, focusing on how it was built and looking at the possibilities as to why it was built and what it was used for. The children had a brilliant debate, arguing their points as to what they thought StoneHenge was used for. They tried really hard and were very persuasive with their arguments. As we have been focusing on StoneHenge, the children have also created some fabulous artwork with half of the class depicting the silhouette of StoneHenge in front of a rising, early morning sun and with the other half of the class depicting the silhouette of StoneHenge at night with a full moon shining from behind. Here are some wonderful pieces they have produced.

Willow Tree had their Sports Day last week. They all gave it their absolute best effort and supported each other brilliantly. They were humble in victory and gracious in defeat and I expected no less from them. I'm very proud of the way they conducted themselves. Here are a few snapshots below of the children competing in the different events.
