Year 5 children are PE Teachers!
This week the children in Year 5 have became PE teachers. On Monday the children in Year 5 got themselves into teams. In their teams they had to create a lesson plan as an aid to help them teach a PE lesson to Year 1 and Year 2 children. The lesson had to involve ball skills. This had to be based on the skills the children have been learning in PE. This could of included; throwing, catching, aiming, target hitting and running. They had to include: warm up and stretches, skill elements, mini-games and a game/match with a cool down at the end. The teams worked together planning their lesson together. They had to think about; teams, equipment, health and saftey and other elements to their lesson. On Tuesday Year 5 taught Year 2 and on Wednesday Year 5 taught Year 1. The Year 5 children showed lots of Carleton Code stamps which included being nuturing, trustworthy, energetic, responsible and being reliable. Well done Year 5 you should be very proud of your-selves. Year 1 and Year 2 children listened well, followed instructions and developed their ball skills! An excellent week of PE shown by all the children!

Teddy Bears' Picnic
The Ducklings enjoyed a lovely morning having a Teddy Bears’ Picnic, to bring our topic of bears to a close. Despite the rain and it having to be an indoor picnic, we had lots of fun singing, dancing and of course eating! We enjoyed eating the sandwiches and cakes we had made in preparation for our picnic. Do you like our teddy bear ears and head dresses we made?
EYFS and KS1 solve jigsaw puzzles
As part of Thomas Deane Day some of the children in EYFS and KS1 solved jigsaw puzzles. The children looked at the picture to begin with to know what the jigsaw had to look like.

The children were delighted when they completed their jigsaws-well done!!
