Climate Change Art using Recyclables

 Our art this week was based on climate change. The children  used  recyclables to create their own models and had great fun doing so.

Report Writing October 2020

 This month we wrote reports on Autumn and Climate Change. We looked at report writing, discussed the topics extensively and gathered information particularly on Climate Change. In the case of climate change the children were able to explain its causes, its effects and the ways we can help to save our planet. 




Art based on designing our homes

 

Homes



























 This week we looked at buildings particularly houses. The children designed their own houses on paper first and then they made models of them.

Some current class news.
As this is science week we are going to have a lego challenge on Friday. Each child will make a lego model of their choice.
We have examined various materials in the school yard and pitch, named and described them.
 We are also looking at water as part of science week eg. its density as a way of explaining why ice floats, fresh water stays on top of  salt water and hot water on top of cold water.
We will also be looking at how underwater animals adapt to their environment and much more



Second class will be doing a prayer service in a fortnight's  time in preparation for their first penance.
