• Weekly Highlights at Mighty Mossy

Welcome back to the final half term of the school year – it's always an action-packed one! Here's what we've been up to this week:

Acorn Class

In English, we have been learning about Six Dinner Sid, a clever but greedy cat who managed to find six different owners to feed him six different dinners!

In History, we have been learning about homes in the past. We explored maps and even managed to find some of our own houses. We discussed how homes can look different from one another before drawing pictures of our houses and identifying some of their features.

In Science, we have begun our new topic on materials. We went on a classroom hunt to find different objects, thinking about the materials they are made from before identifying and labelling them.

Oak Class

In English, we completed our modelled and independent writing, producing letters to our local MP, Ashley Dalton, debating whether the monarchy should be abolished.

In Science, we began our new unit on Evolution and Inheritance, exploring how plants and animals adapt to their environments.

In Geography, we started our new topic on plastic pollution. This week, we learned why our oceans matter and the impact they have on our lives.

Class Call In

Thank you to everyone who came along to our Class Call In. It was lovely to see so many of you there! These sessions provide a wonderful opportunity for the children to share their incredible work and celebrate the progress they have made. We are always so proud of their achievements and love seeing them share their learning with such confidence.

Forest Friday

We got creative by making natural paintbrushes using resources found around our school grounds. We then experimented with different techniques, including dabbing, stamping, pressing and swiping to create unique artwork.

School of Signs

In our School of Signs sessions, we will be learning how to sign different jobs.

We can't wait to see what the rest of this exciting half term brings
