Brrr Winter - Noi sends us amazing things in the post
Date: 8th Jan 2021 @ 3:36pm
Our return to school has been very exciting! We received a letter and some paintings and then a book. It was from Noi and he told us all about some exciting things that happened to him.
He sent us lots of things to set up a small world tray so we can pretend to be Noi and reenact his story.
We set the tray up ourselves and it looks amazing.

This has been a very unusual week for year 4, and we want to say a huge well done to all of the children who have been trying their best at home, as well as those children who have been working hard in school.
We have chosen 3 children from each class to go on outstanding for this week, as they've tried their best with their learning every day.
In 4CB:
Ileri
Grace
Calvin
In 4JB:
Rayan,
Daisy,
Robyn
It was a very tricky decision - and we could have chosen many of you.
We can't wait to help you with your remote learning (or learning in school) next week. A huge congratulations to everyone for their hard work and determination.
Have an amazing weekend,
Miss Brookes and Miss Bryce

Please see the video below where I am explaining how to do this. The details will also be posted on school spider each day.

Happy New Year!!!!
We hope you have had an amazing Christmas. Unfortunately we will be working from home this half term due to the National Lockdown which came into place Monday evening. We do not want you to worry as we are here with you. However we would like you to continue with your learning at home using Padlet and school spider.
You must log onto school spider each morning and do the register. We will then post the padlet link for that day where you will find all the day's learning. Make sure you go to the column for that day. So today go to the column labelled Wednesday and scroll down to see your activities for the day. At the top of the column you will find some messages from the staff in Year 1.
Each day we would like you to ask us questions or tell us about your learning using the discussion thread for that day. Parents if you have any questions or can't find any logging in details for any of the online resources that we use please email us on the year group email or alternatively when you receive a call from Miss Kevill please let her know as well.
y1homelearning@ravensbury.manchester.sch.uk
It is important that you log onto school spider each morning and do the register and complete the activities on Padlet. Miss Kevill will be ringing each day to any parents of children who have not been accessing the remote learning and have not been completing the daily register.
Thank you for your support and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask through email, school spider or when you receive a call.
Stay Safe!!!

On Thursday 17th December we enjoyed Christmas lunch. We wore our Rudolf hats and used our Christmas placemats to put our lunch on. We ate turkey or Cheese whirls along with the usual traditional side dishes of roast potatoes, brussel sprouts, mash, carrots and gravy. It was delicious!!!
Thank you Alison and all the cooks in the kitchen:)

Date: 17th Dec 2020 @ 4:15pm
2JC had a fabulous Christmas dinner and we even pulled crackers together. We loved half of the jokes and didn't understand some others because they were so bad(!)
Have a look at how much fun we had below! 
Thanks for a blast!

It's the last week of term and we're challenging ourselves to see how much of our learning we can remember !
Here's our capital letter challenge.
Date: 16th Dec 2020 @ 1:23pm
We have written some super non-chronological reports about an invention of our choice. We worked really hard on including additional information using parenthesis marked with commas or brackets, and making sure our ideas flowed well together using different conjunctions. We created our final versions using PicCollage so that they look like an authentic page from an information book! Check out some of our reports in the photos!

It's clear 5HW are a class full of budding engineers and architects!
We've had such a fabulous morning putting into practice all of the skills we've explored in order to create our bridges. Our design criteria was to make a bridge that was free-standing, had moving bascules and had a span of at least 0.5m.
The collaborative and teamwork skills were exceptional as teams of 4 worked together to make beam and shell structures, and create pivot points using skewers and screw eyes. What a brilliant time, check out our photos to see us working on our designs and our finished bridges.
You'll see EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US is on the Outstanding Star today!
