🌟 Weekly Highlights at Mighty Mossy 🌟

Another busy and exciting week of learning at Mighty Mossy!

🌰 Acorn Class
In Science, we explored the properties of everyday materials and thought about why different objects are made from particular materials.

In Computing, we linked our learning to History. We practised logging on to Purple Mash independently before completing a 'To Do' task where we described different types of homes.

In History, we looked at a variety of homes and compared their similarities and differences, discussing how homes can vary depending on when and where they were built.

In Music, the children enjoyed learning how to play the glockenspiel and developing their musical skills.

🌳 Oak Class
In Science, we put our creativity to the test by designing our own animals that had adapted to survive in unusual environments, including volcanoes and other extreme habitats.

In English, we explored flashbacks and performed our own examples. We learned how this technique is used by J.K. Rowling throughout the Harry Potter series to reveal important information from the past.

In Geography, we investigated evidence of plastic pollution from around the world. We developed our enquiry skills by asking thoughtful questions and carrying out research to find answers.

🏉 Wigan Warriors Visit
We were delighted to welcome visitors from Wigan Warriors to school this week. Each class took part in a fun workshop where they learned and practised a range of rugby drills. The children thoroughly enjoyed getting active and trying out new skills. Keep an eye on the newsletter for information about local rugby clubs that children may wish to join.

🌿 Forest Friday
This week, we used natural resources from our school grounds to create beautiful nature mobiles. The children showed great creativity and teamwork while designing and constructing their creations.

We are incredibly proud of all the hard work, enthusiasm and curiosity shown by the children this week. Well done, everyone!
