French Spelling Bee - Round 1

I am so proud at how many children took part in the first around of the spelling bee this morning and Madam Bex was amazed at how well they all did. Everyone should be very proud of themselves! The children that made it through to the next round were Dempsey, Oscar, Videept, Harper, Mia and Fatima. Well done!

Children In Need

Today, the children enjoyed coming to school in yellow, spotty or Pudsey clothes to help raise money for children in need. The children learnt why Children In Need is so important and even took part in a Pudsey workout with Joe Wicks.

Music

This half term, we are learning all about traditional Indian music. So far the children have learnt about some traditional instruments such as the Indian flute, tabla and sitar. Today, the children learnt that the tune in traditional Indian music is called the rag and that it is create by using a set of given notes. This afternoon the children improvised their own rags on a glockenspiel, first they became confident with the notes they could use and then had a go at making their own rag. 

Religious Education

This week it was Interfaith Week. In RE, we learnt all about a different faith called Humanism. The children learnt that some people beleive in a god or godess, some believe in many gods or godesses and some people don't beleive in gods but still celebrate important events in their lives such as births, deaths and weddings. The children learnt that Humanists beleive that everyone should look after our world and you should treat others the way you would like to be treated. 

French
This week it was Anti Bullying Week. In French, the children learnt how to say the qualities of what makes them who they are in French. First, the children had to go around the room ticking words they thought related to others in the classroom. They then got to see what everyone else thought were their best qualities and made a poster showing what made them who they are. 

All Around the World Day

Today, the children learnt all about Japan as part of 'All Around the World Day'. The children learnt lots of interesting facts about Japan, such as, where it is, it's capital city, the main religion and some of its famous landmarks and traditions. The children even learnt how to say and write their numbers to 10 in Japanese! Some of the children's highlights of the day, were making their own origami bookmarks, learning about Yayoi Kusama and of course trying some traditional Japanese foods. Some of the children were a little unsure at first, but they should be very proud of themselves for trying something different. A lot even found out that they actually, really liked it!
