  In art this term, 3AD @RF have taken inspiration from Pablo Picasso! We have been practising a range of artistic skills. We looked at drawing in proportion using the grid method. We tried our hand at layering creating a 3D effect and then we practised abstract portraits focusing on our use of line and vibrant colours, much like Pablo Picasso did. Our final piece will combine all of the skills we have been using and a touch of collaging as well for extra texture and effect!

  In 6LD @RF, the children have been learning about WW2. Children have learned how the Second World War began and how the UK was involved. They have been thorough with their investigations into how the Nazi’s came to power.

  Eleanor’s home learning is amazing – she made her own shelter and suitcase. Take a look at the photos below.

  This week in 4SM @RF we have been using role play to understand the jobs and roles of people in Anglo Saxon England. This has helped bring to life a typical village setting, with children acting out hunting, farming, cooking, weaving and playing. 

  This lesson enabled the children to understand the wider context to our history topic where we have been looking into the Vikings invasions of Anglo-Saxon Britain. 

  We have also been reading the ‘Tunnel’, we enjoyed acting out the story.

  The 5EB @RF children have returned excited and ready to learn, from their Christmas holidays and have enjoyed all of the learning this far, especially English.

  We have been reading ‘The Tunnel’ by Anthony Browne. As a class, we made some great predictions by looking at the evidence and then went on to identify how suspense is created within films as well as writing. We used drama techniques such as; voice, body, movement, and use of space to fully immerse ourselves in the plot action more effectively. This week, we look forward to writing our own narrative, using all of the skills we have learnt

  In YR4/5CR @RF as part of our science learning on forces, we have been investigating the effect of gravity on us all and everything around us. We learnt how to use newton meters accurately and compare the mass of different everyday objects. It was great working together! If an apple weighs 120g on Earth, would it weigh more or less? How much would it weigh?

• SNOW WAY ..

  Wed 10 Jan 2024

  SNOW-WAY!!! Who would have thought it would snow on the first day back to school!
  Nursery enjoyed getting our coats on and exploring the snow. Unfortunately it didn’t last for long but the smiles and laughs outside were infectious. “It’s so cold, it’s snowing”.
  We also explored ice inside the classroom too, looking and how it melts and describing what it felt like. Brrrr it’s cold in here, there must be so much learning in the atmosphere! ❄️🌨🥶
