Wow look at the eggs our Nursery children completed for the school egg competition!
A huge well done!
We have worked really hard in Nursery to complete observational paintings of our chicks.
Year 2 have been working so hard at home and we have been amazed with the fantastic work they have been sending in.
English
In English, children started off the term learning about China. They have been writing and performing poems about Chinese dragon’s dancing in the New Year parade. They practised reading their poems aloud, speaking clearly and using sound effects and actions.
Here are a few of the brilliant performances:
The children used the facts they learned about China to write some wonderful information texts.
Maths
Look at all of the marvellous multiplication that the children have been doing, investigating how many equal groups there are and how many objects are in each group:
Here is even more fantastic work that year 2 have been doing, we are so proud of them!
All of the children at Harton Primary School created some fantastic, festive baubles to decorate the whole school. You might have seen them adorning the classroom windows!
The children at Harton Primary School have been celebrating their positive attributes as part of a whole school art project. They drew a self-portrait and thought carefully about a positive word to describe themselves, there were some brilliant ideas and fantastic drawings.
The children were able to recognise their best qualities and the things that they like about themselves, helping them to reach their full potential. We were so impressed with how much they celebrate their own achievements and it was so lovely to see how proud of themselves they are.
Year 2 have had an action packed few weeks getting into the festive spirit and have been taking part in some fantastic Christmas activities. The children have designed wonderful Christmas cards and beautiful calendars using paint to create a tree for all seasons.
Christmas party day was brilliant, starting off with an online pantomime which was hilarious – the children got involved, singing along to the songs and shouting at the characters! They had a wonderful time dancing and playing party games in the classroom, we have some fabulous dancers.
They enjoyed a visit to Harton Grotto for hot chocolate with marshmallows, a story and some singing. There was even presents under the tree!
Finally we had visit from Tides of Change, the children made their own Christmas tree decoration using twigs and then roasted marshmallows to make delicious s’mores. It’s been a truly wonderful time and we have enjoyed every minute.
