Today we have used our observational skills to sketch leaves #smithdownart

Check out our natural pictures! We have been inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. #smithdownart

Lots of discussion with our connect retrieval task today matching features of different stages of development. It was lovely to hear some of our fabulous new vocabulary being used independently #smithdownsci @SmithdownPrimY2 @baronbedford @Edu_Meadows

@SmithdownPrimY2 have been agreeing and disagreeing with statements about animals and justifying their reasons #smithdownsci @baronbedford @Edu_Meadows

We investigated the question are the oldest children the tallest today in @SmithdownPrimY2 #smithdownsci

We retold the model text. We used picture clues to help. We are ready to write our own circular story now #smithdownwriters #smithdownreaders

This week we have been busy using flexible partitioning #smithdownmaths

We reviewed our favourite photographs and discussed the impact the darkness or light had on our pictures #smithdowncomputing

In computing we took photographs in dark places. We then spoke about lighting, used torches and other light sources to improve our pictures #smithdowncomputing

After learning about life cycles, @SmithdownPrimY5 kindly invited us to watch their butterfly release this afternoon. 4 classes of pure excitement 🦋 #smithdownsci @SmithdownPrimY2
