   With the sunshine finally making an appearance, we were so excited to welcome our families into nursery to help brighten up our garden! 

  The children looked fantastic wearing green and had a fab time planting alongside their parents and carers.  It was wonderful to see so many families working together to fill our outdoor space with beautiful new flowers and plants.

  The children have already loved helping to look after our garden by watering the plants and we can’t wait to watch them grow each day. 

  A huge thank you to all the families who joined us and helped make our garden such a lovely space for everyone to enjoy!

  This week, 4EB @RF have been putting their persuasive skills to the test! As part of our English learning, we have been writing and preparing persuasive speeches to convince Mr Ball that we deserve extra playtime. 

  The children have explored persuasive language, rhetorical questions, strong arguments and emotive vocabulary to make their speeches as convincing as possible. We have been impressed by their creativity, confidence and determination to persuade their audience.

  Will their arguments be strong enough to win over Mr Ball? We can’t wait to find out!

  Year 1LB @RF had a busy end of last half term. We went on a local walk as part of our topic in Geography. The weather was glorious! We discovered the features of a local high street and compared them with more rural areas. Frankie also gave in a fantastic piece of homework. He made a castle as part of our topic in History – well done Frankie!

  This half term has started brilliantly with Year 1 taking part in a whole school mini golf event. We has great fun and the rain managed to hold off!

  As we approach the end of the academic year, Year 1 will still be busy with their phonics learning. We are continuing our theme of Kings and Queens and will be learning to use bossy language in English, creating rules. In Maths, we are learning about time and money and we will also be revisiting our place value skills. In Art, we are learning about Henri Matisse.

  We have another exciting, busy half term ahead, but we’re looking forward to it very much!

  In Year 2 RE @RF, we are looking at the continent of Africa and the country of Zambia. We have talked about the human and physical features of the country and most recently we have looked at a village on the river Zambezi.

  We looked at the different animals that lived in the village and around the village and how they helped the village or were a danger. How can they stop Hippos and Elephants eating their crops?

  Year 2 have been writing stories and on the last day of the half term we invited our parents in to share our amazing work. The children loved making their stories into books to show their work to their parents, they all felt proud of their work and loved sharing it!

  This week in 5ZS @RF, the children have had a fantastic afternoon creating their own soft toys using a range of stitching techniques and creative designs. The children showed great resilience, perseverance and creativity throughout the process, especially when learning new sewing skills.

  They will continue and complete their soft toys tomorrow, ready to take home after half term. We are so proud of their hard work and enthusiasm!

  In Year 1LG @RF have been really busy this week.  We have been learning positional language in maths.  We’ve even been doing the, ‘cha cha’ slide to help us with our left and right. 

  We’ve also started a new book called, ‘The Magic Bed’, and we’ve started some great creative writing.   We’ve also become computer specialists, by learning how to change the font on our word documents.  Finally, we  joined a big online webinar where Joe Wicks taught us about the importance of exercise and we even did a workout watching Joe on the screen – it was great!

  For the Year 1 DT topic, we have been learning about how to identify fruit from vegetables.  We also practised our cutting skills, thought about what ingredients go well together and ended the topic with making our own smoothies and designing our own smoothie carton.

  This half term, 4EB @RF have loved learning all about the fascinating Maya civilisation! We discovered where the Maya lived, what daily life was like, and how they built incredible pyramids and temples deep in the rainforest. We explored Maya gods and beliefs, learned about the importance of chocolate to the Maya people, and found out how they used calendars and astronomy to understand the world around them.  

  One of the trickiest parts of our learning was understanding the Maya number system  Using dots, bars, and symbols was very different to the numbers we use today, but with perseverance, resilience, and lots of practice, we managed it! We are so proud of all the hard work and curiosity shown throughout this topic

  This week in RLT @RF, we have been learning all about pirates! The children have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the exciting story The Night Pirates and discovering lots of new pirate vocabulary along the way.

  We talked about pirate ships, treasure, maps, and adventures at sea, and the children loved joining in with pirate role play and storytelling activities. They have been practising using new words in their conversations and retelling parts of the story with great enthusiasm and imagination.

  The children especially enjoyed pretending to be pirates, speaking like pirates, and working together on their exciting adventures. It has been wonderful to see their confidence grow as they shared ideas and used their new vocabulary during play and class discussions.

  AHOYYY ME HEARTIES!!
