SESE TOPIC LIGHT
We have been looking at Light and vocabulary related to this topic. The boys learned the difference between natural light and man made light and should be able to give examples of both. We also learned what Transparent, Translucent and Opaque means. The boys played with shadow formation and were inspired by a group called Attraction which stared in Britain's Got Talent 2013. We created shadow puppets by making sure they were Opaque. The pupils made a setting and wrote a short script to follow for their scene. We learned about Thomas Edison who created the light bulb and learned that he struggled in school but had a very curious mind and began his experiments at home. We watched this video to learn more about him. Invention Of BULB | The Dr. Binocs Show | Best Learning Video for Kids | Preschool Learning - YouTube

Space Week 2021
Pupils engaged in lots of hands on learning about Our Solar System. They created paper maché planets, Alien masks and rockets. They watched some live feed during the day from the International Space Station along with videos of Astronauts living in Space. Boys made an acrostic poem on SPACE and completed their Space themed homework.

SESE |
In SESE we have been focusing on Materials. We have been practicing our scientific words such as, translucent, fabric, wood, plastic, durable, rigid etc. The boys went on a material hunt walk and collected some materials to bring back to school. Some pupils created an image such as a face using their resources.
For the topic of Light, pupils are learning how materials can form different shadows. The boys are making shadow puppets to create a small scene. They are using opaque materials to create characters. |
