Spring 2024

World Book Day 7th March

Bamburgh Class had a very busy World Book Day!

Our potato characters were absolutely amazing; there were so many fabulous creative ideas. Well done everyone! Our class World Book day story was Hello Spring by Jo Lindley. 

After a whole year of waiting, it’s finally spring’s turn to wear the Weather Crown and create her own special season. Her friends can all remember how beautiful spring was last time.

But this time, as Winter places the crown on her head, Spring starts to feel anxious. Can her friends help by showing her that not everything has to be perfect?

Using the book as inspiration we made crowns to represent our favourite season. We explored different emotions and why the character Spring felt anxious in the story and how her friends helped her. We also painted some super spring meadow pictures.

 



Design & Technology (Spring 1 Term) - Puppet Making
Last term Bamburgh class had a very busy term. In design & technology the children  experimented joining fabric together using pins, staples and glue. They designed a puppet on a template and then created their own puppets by joining together two pieces of fabric. Then they decorated their puppet to match their design. 
Music - following a beat & playing and performing
In music we were practising to play and perform by an instrumental part by ear on a Glockenspiel. 
Science
In Science we continued our topic of everyday materials and had great fun having a go at building a structure strong enough to withstand wind (based on the story of the 3 Little Pigs).
