STEM Challenge
Last week, we did a STEM lego learning challenge which was really fun and tested our brains. We also learnt that STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. Altogether we did five lego challenges (such as designing and building a vehicle that could explore a planet), which were amazing and we all had a really good time building.

Note from Mr Bamford: Big thanks to Wymondham High School and Mr Brown for the loan of the kits and the opportunity to complete these challenges which were introduced and delivered by RAF in collaboration with ‘Raising Robots’.
We are artists!
This half term we are focusing on the skill of ‘drawing’. We have been learning what drawing means and how we can use different pressure to create different marks on our paper. We have been using drawing pencils and charcoal to create different lines. We discovered that you can rub your pencil line to create a blurred look. This is called smudging. We also experimented with drawing on top of different textures to see if that would change the look of our pencil or charcoal lines.

Fun and Creativity
Having fun and being creative was the focus for this week. The children have really enjoyed exploring their surrounds, making new friends and creating wonderful play stories together. We have had lots of opportunities to go and explore our newly developed outside area and we even took our musical maths outside. What a great week we have had back at school and we cannot wait to see what other wonderful learning opportunities will come next!
Our First Week Of Year 5
In our first week of Year 5, we did a 15 question quiz which was really fun and we all had a good laugh. We also played a game called ‘Mystery Me’ where we had to guess each other’s identity. Then we did art where we had inspiration from a video to decorate the front cover of our art books with all different shades of colour. It went really well! Finally, we did some writing about what we are good at and what we are looking forward to in Year 5!
