Dance Lessons

Class 4 have had an amazing start to the term with our dance lessons. We are loving learning about African dances!

Culture Week

During Culture Week, we sampled some popular Oktoberfest food, including pretzels, lebkuchen (gingerbread hearts) and apple strudel. We researched the origins of Oktoberfest and explored the artwork of Franz Marc. He was a German artist who was born in Munich – the city where Oktoberfest began.

Music

We have loved playing the Glockenspiel in music this half term. 

Trip to Blackpool Zoo

We learned lots about endangered animals at Blackpool Zoo! We gave some suggestions about what we can do to help save these wonderful animals and even got to handle some real animal artifacts! This was another great wonder moment and we got to ask lots of questions. 

Maths- Partitioning

Class 4 have been working hard in maths. We have used place value counters to help us partition larger numbers in lots of different ways!

Dance Workshop

We learned a traditional German dance in our dance workshop during Culture Week. During Oktoberfest, they perform a range of dances, including polkas, waltzes and Schuhplattler.

Trip to Blackpool Zoo
