Year 5 Create Doodlers
Building on yesterday's knowledge of electrical circuits, Year 5 created their own doodlers.
The creating of the doodlers created several issues where the class had to use their problem solving skills to make sure the doodler moved across the paper.
Fantastic team work Year 5!
Library Visit
The children had a fantastic time visiting Ellesmere Port Library - some children joined the library and others borrowed and returned books.

KS2 Disco
Yesterday after school, KS2 held their Autumn disco. There were lots of fantastic dance moves on show!

Children showcased their use of fronted adverbials and also wrote down what emotions Annie would have been feeling.
Well done Year 5!
Wax Resist Art
After creating their own wax resist boards, children created abstract art. The children used a range a scratched marks to add contrast and patterns.
Digestion
Children in Year 4 have been using everyday items to explore the human digestive system.
Y5 - Literacy - What kind of person was Annie Edson-Taylor?
This morning in literacy, we were looking at various words that could describe Annie Edson-Taylor the main character, from our class book this half term, Queen of the Falls.
If we were unsure on a word, we used a dictionary to find its definition.
Great work Year 5!
Animation
Children in Year 4 have been using the technique of 'onion' skinning to create their own mini animations.
Y5 - Using Boolean Operators
Today in Year 5's computing session, we explored the use of Boolean Operators when using search engines, such as Google, Yahoo and Bing.
We also looked at how search results differ from Google,Yahoo and Bing.
