1A Sink or Float?
Today we all dressed up as Pirates (including staff) to celebrate the end of our topic.
We tested our Pirate Ships to see if they would sink or float.
Unfortunately most of the ships filled up with water and sank (except for a few childern’s ships and Miss Alexander’s). We talked about what different materials we would use if we had to make them again!
1A Pirate Ships
Firstly, they designed thier ships and made a list of materials that they would need to make it. Then they collected the materials and made some fantastic ships that we shall sail tomorrow.
Hope they don’t sink!
1A Multiplication Song
In Numeracy 1A have been learning multiplication sums. However, they struggled to remember and say ‘multiplication’ so Miss Alexander thought of a song that would help them.

1A’S Hunt for Freddy!
When we arrived at school last week we found a letter from Captain Jack in our classroom. It read:
Ahoy me hearties,
Take a close look and you’ll see I took Fred away with me.
Captured and soon to walk the plank!
I’ll give you a chance with clues where we are, solve them and find us or I’ll take him far.
Time is ticking so be quick..
After an adventure through your school we are now on a large wooden chair enjoying a spot of Bearwood air.
Fair winds
Captain Jack
We couldn’t believe it be we knew we had to rescue Fred. We put on our coats and made our way outside to the wooden chair to find him. But when we got there the chair was bare except for another note with a clue to solve.
After we had solved all of the clues we rescued Fred form captain Jack. Hurray!
Yummy bread and soup
They also made some bread to have with their soup which needed a lot of kneading and made some of the children’s hands ache.
After the bread and the soup were cooked the children ate them and said that they were very yummy.
1A Visit to the church
1A went to visit St Mary’s church in Bearwood. They asked the Vicar a lot of questions about the church. Why people come there? what it was made from?
The children then had the chance to have a good look around at all the different things such as the water font, the altar and the beautiful stained glass windows.
