Our first week of school in 2015 has been an excellent one! Everybody has settled back in well and worked their socks off. Da iawn Dosbarth Oren!
Our topic for this term is 'We Are Storytellers' and we will be learning about a different fairy tale each week. This week we have been taking part in lots of learning activities about Little Red Riding Hood.

In literacy we have learned that every story has a beginning, middle and end. We have made story paths to help us retell a story and we have began to use adjectives to describe a character.
We have also been very busy scientists this week. Humpty Dumpty had a problem and needed us to help. He wanted to know which material would make the best crash mat to stop him from smashing. So, we all investigated different materials and looked at some of their properties. We decided what we needed and made a plan of how we could find out the answer. We decided to use eggs and to drop them on to different materials to see if they cracked or not. We all predicted which materials would make a good crash mat and recorded our answers. Everybody enjoyed this experiment!
