In our enquiry this term, 4GE have started exploring different parts of the human body and comparing these with wolves. We have been considering how there are similarities and differences thinking about why these differences are important for the species of animal in relation to Global Goal 15 - Life on Land. Firstly, the children explored the digestive system and how food travels once we have eaten to the point where waste needs to leave the body comparing this to the digestive system of animals such as wolves. The children have also been exploring their teeth. We discovered the different types of teeth and their functions whilst identifying the differences to wolves. This is helping the children understand that based on the type of diet an animal might have, can determine the different types of teeth needed.

In PE this term, the children have made a fantastic start in both gymnastics and netball.

In gymnastics the children have practising balances and combining these in a short sequence to music. The children were encouraged to consider how they can transition from one balance to another in time with the music.

Whilst in netball the children have been developing passing using chest, bounce and overhead passes whilst also growing in confidence when catching the ball by ensuring their bodies and hands are in the right positions.

National Poetry day 2024

During poetry day this year, we looked at what poetry is and read different poems as a class. The pupils also got a chance to make poems of their own describing an emotion.
