We are Frog Class
Our class teacher is Miss Manvell. Our Learning Assistant is Mrs Porter. Frog Class is a great place to be where everyone works hard, tries their best and never gives up. We are remarkable readers and we really enjoy Miss Manvell’s story of the day.
In Frog Class, we have been very busy since our return to school. In our English lessons, we have been reading a book called Meerkat Mail, by Emily Gravett which sees Sunny the meerkat going on some wild adventures in the hope of finding the most perfect place to live. To help us with remembering his adventure, we created a story map. Take a look and see if you can follow Sunny throughout his journey.
In our maths lessons, we have been exploring and reasoning with 2D and 3D shapes. We are expects with naming shapes and identifying their properties. Not only can we identify the number of edges, vertices and faces, but we have also been able to identify shapes with lines of symmetry. What brilliant mathematicians we are!
We have really enjoyed the start to our African Safari topic and we have fully embraced being ‘Creative Camels’. Within our art lessons, we have explored the scumbling, cross-hatching and stippling techniques, as part of our African animal sketches. Additionally, we have explored a technique called ‘blow painting’ to create an eye-catching animal piece, along with exploring our collaging skills to create some beautiful animal backdrops. Lastly, we have explored different animal prints and have produced some very impressive relief prints inspired by some of our favourite animals. Take a look at our fantastic art, aren’t we brilliant!
