By breaking down a story into individual elements and rearranging them , the Reception children have learned the importance of following a sequence. They have used this computational thinking process to understand the order of stories and rhymes.
The Years 1 and 2 have been using commands in different orders to investigate how the order affects the outcome. They also learned about designing in programs, designing their own algorithms as programs and debugging them.
In Sapphire Class we worked together to select, rehearse and perform our own group poems. We worked together in small groups and had to think carefully about how we would use our voices, changing the speed, tone and volume of our voices to put on a good performance! We then performed these confidently at the poetry festival and reflected on how our performances went.
In our Senses topic, we used spices and herbs to explore our sense of smell.
We took turns to smell the herbs and spices and then described what they reminded us of.
Iria said, “Cinnamon reminds me of Christmas.”
Ivy said, “Ginger makes me think about gingerbread men.”
Xach said, “This smells spicy like curry.”
In science we have learned about our senses. We investigated taste using a selection of different crackers. We thought about what flavours we could taste and described them as ‘salty, sweet, plain, cheesy and spicy’.
“I like the cheese crackers best,” Said Ayla.
Reception have been ordering items by their size. They used the words ‘bigger’ and ‘smaller’, ‘longer’ and ‘shorter’ to compare.
Reception explored capacity. They enjoyed finding out how much water would fit in each container.
Reception have been investigating mass. They compared items and used balance scales to see which were heaviest.
