Forces investigation

Yesterday, we carried out a science investigation looking at how changing the surface of a ramp would affect the distance a car travels. Children worked together to ensure the test was fair and carefully measured the distance the car travelled.

Tigers enjoyed some netball in the lovely autumn sunshine this afternoon. The children worked well on teams – finding space and practising quick decision making.

Hello Yellow – World Mental Health Day

Dear parents and carers,
Our school will be taking part in Hello Yellow on Friday 10th October (World
Mental Health Day) to raise awareness and funds for YoungMinds, the UK’s
leading charity for young people’s mental health.
No young person should feel alone with their mental health and that’s why
Hello Yellow matters. We’re taking this opportunity as a school community to
come together and show our students that we’re with them and they’re never
alone with their mental health.

We’ll be taking part by wearing YELLOW on Friday 10th October.

You can also donate to support our school’s fundraising YoungMinds – Myddle CE Primary School

Most importantly, we want to share the resources which YoungMinds offer to
support parents and carers if you ever need help and advice to support your
children. This includes:
• online resources (www.youngminds.org.uk/parent/)
• a phone line, open 9.30am-4pm (0808 802 5544)
• an online chat for parents and carers to speak to trained
professionals if you’re concerned about your children’s mental
health (www.youngminds.org.uk/parents-helpline/)

 

Mummification!

This week in our history topic we focused on the ancient Egyptian process of mummification. The class had so much fun turning each other into mummies! We then learnt the multiple steps involved in preparing the body, including removing the brain and other organs, ready to be placed in the tomb!

Pushes and pulls

We’ve had a fantastic first full week back! The children have returned with great, positive attitudes.

In our science work we have started looking at different contact forces. In groups, children sorted push and pull forces into a Venn diagram, working collaboratively and discussing the results. We have also enjoyed some active maths and started our topic work on ancient Egypt. In our literacy, we have practised writing expanded noun phrases, using adverbs and punctuating speech.

Well done for all of your hard work this week Tigers!
