Birch class learning update

Birch class has been practicing how to add 3 1-digit numbers by using ten frames and part whole models.

We have also been investigating number using place value charts.

In art we have been exploring the use of charcoal, so far we have created cave paintings and we have explored still life art.

 

In Science we have been learning about forces and magnets. We conducted an experiment, where we were trying to work out the force it took to move an object over surfaces with different amounts of friction. We found out the smoother the surface, the less friction and the easier it was to pull the object.

We also investigated how much force it took to lift different objects.

Our new PE kit!

Earlier this year, our Creative Council launched a competition to design a brand-new school PE kit. After receiving lots of fantastic entries and carefully reviewing the children’s ideas, we are delighted to announce that the winning design is now available to purchase through School Shop Direct. https://schoolshopdirect.co.uk/product-category/shrewsbury/bicton-primary/

The children put a tremendous amount of thought, creativity and effort into their designs, and we would love to start the new school year with a fresh new look inspired by their work.

Each coloured top represents one of our school houses, helping children to show their team spirit while creating a vibrant and unified look across the school. We are incredibly proud of the Creative Council and everyone who took part in bringing this exciting project to life.
