Chocolate orange cake

5WT spent a busy morning in the nature area before their Christmas dinner. They hulled out an orange - eating some and leaving other bits for the birds. The next stage was to fill the orange with chocolate cake mix, replacing the lid to make a tight container. Wrapping in foil and placing it in the fire before leaving them for 20 minutes produced sumptuous orange cake mix which half the class enjoyed!

For the rest of the morning, 5WT were busy playing, climbing trees, building dens and making bird feeders. The morning finished with a few games of Eagle Eye.

Learning the Jive

Last week we learnt the Jive with more partner work and coordination and this week we learnt the Lindy hop focusing on feeling the beat and having a bounce in our step.

The Lambeth Walk

5RP's wartime dance this week has been the Lambeth walk where they learnt how to dance with a partner and how to coordinate their movements to be in time with each other. They are already asking what next week's dance will be!

Year 5 have started learning war dances. This week we learnt the Charleston.

Let's go fly a kite!

5RP spent a busy afternoon in the nature area. They redirected their energies to designing and improving kites. A few weeks ago, they started making kites but had little time to finish off. Today, they thought about their designs, adapting where necessary to produce the best kite possible. Discussions centred around upthrust, gravity and air resistance. Year 5 enjoyed testing their designs in the playground. Luckily for us, it was a windy day!

Materials

Tuesday afternoon saw Year 5 venture outside to experience the nature area. They were given three jobs - moving woodchip, building a habitat for a teddy bear and making a kite. As their topic for Science is Materials, we discuss the benefits of using a variety of materials both natural and man-made.
