Leopards@taddy

I am so proud of each and every one of the Leopards today.  After 2 weeks of exploring and learning about poems and focussing on the features that occur in cautionary tales, the children have planned and produced their very own!  They were so excited to share these with each other. So excited that we invited Mrs Chapman to join us and listen to what the children have produced! 🤩 You should all be very proud! ⭐️

This week the year fours have been learning about symmetry. After exploring with objects and each other using mirrors, we had a go at creating shapes using lolly pop sticks and challenging eachother to complete the shape. 

The children worked in groups to learn and recite our current poem ‘Jim, a cautionary tale’. The children performed their parts to each other and used instruments to create a beat. 

This week, the Leopard have started reading out new book- J im, who Ran Away from His Nurse, and was Eaten by a Lion: A Cautionary Tale. 🦁 Today we started to pull out the rhyming words in a narrative poem.  We then had a go at reading the poem aloud, clapping to create a beat to follow.  In the next few lessons, the children will be learning the poem and performing as a class using different instruments to create our own soundscape.
