Year 6 have been busy this afternoon creating plasticine models in the style of Albert Giacometti. Each model had to strike a different pose, which the children then sketched in their book. Well done Year 6!

 

Today we have been reading Funnybones and learning about skeletons. We then learnt different body parts and brought our skeletons to life.  

Today, we have been practising our cricket skills. We have been learning how to bowl correctly, drawing a back to front number six in the air to help us. We also practised hitting the ball off a stump.

This week we have been hearing about Harvest time. We now know that farmers grow food for us to eat and England is too cold to grow bananas. We picked our own tomatoes for snack time.

We have enjoyed learning outdoors this half term. We went on a listening walk to see what sounds we could hear. 

We have been learning all about street art. Today we finished our collages in the style of Keith Haring. He was a graffiti artist who used bold bright colours and a cartoon style. We love our pictures and they definitely brighten up the corridor!

This week in Reception we have been learning about Harvest. We have also learnt where fruit and veg comes from and how it grows. We then a go at chopping lots of different fruit and vegetables.

This week we have been in an adventure to look for clues to help us workout which season it is at the moment. We found lots of exciting things to help us work it out .

These amazing footballers represented school fantastically, playing as a team and showing determination, resilience and ability. After a close game in the final, Scotforth won the tournament and will now represent Lancaster in the district finals in January. Well done girls!!!

We have been looking at place value in maths and how 100 is made up of 10 tens. We had lots of fun showing this by using lots of objects from our classroom!

This week we have been drawing our self portraits. We have used mirrors to help us look at our eye, hair and skin colour. 

Sadly it is Year 6’s final day at Lockerbie, but they’re going out with a bang! Raft building, Stand-up-paddleboarding, fencing and rifle shooting to finish off a fantastic week.
