We have continued to think about meta-learning this week. In particular, we have been thinking about which learning powers are the most useful in specific tasks, for example in a revision task, we would need to capitalise, make links and use interdependence (consider whether it is better to work alone or with others).
Time to prime those brains and flex those fingers: World Maths Day is back!
To finish off their Book Week, the children in Year 3 and Year 5 came together this afternoon and celebrated their love of reading by sharing some of their favourite books.
So, today has been the highlight of the week- WORLD BOOK DAY!
Yesterday, Year 5 had the opportunity to meet the illustrator- Selom Sunu.
Yesterday, we opened the Whitehorse Junior Reading Café (within the school library).
We have had a truly magnificent start to Book Week here at Cypress Upper!
On Monday, Year 5 at Ecclesbourne were joined by Brigstock for a visit from a Viking storyteller.
As you know, the Cypress Upper school council have decided that they would like to purchase some plants for each of the classrooms, to promote well-being and encourage responsibility.
Y5 have had a super exciting day today – we had a special Viking visitor!
The annual museum day was a huge success with children across the trust displaying artistic and design skills in abundance.
It was lovely to see the creative efforts of the children today during Museum Day.
Year 6 have had a fabulous week, concluding their work on Ancient Egypt.
We have had a wonderfully creative week. Year 6 have been creating death masks and learning about mummification, the process of preserving bodies ready for the afterlife.
