Butterflies have had a fantastic morning exploring Sheldwich, learning about it's history and Mrs Griffiths showing us some pictures of how Sheldwich used to look. We also used a map of Sheldwich to find where we were and spot different places.
Butterflies learnt about Victorian houses and how Victorians lived. We drew a Victorian house and used watercolours to paint it. We really liked the effect of the watercolour.
Butterflies had a great time weighing out ingredients to make a gingerbread man. We cut the gingerbread using a cutter and then decorated them. They tasted delicious!

Geography and DT day
Wednesday 28th September 2022
Butterflies class had a fantastic Geography and DT day. We started the day by going for a walk by the harvested fields by the woods near our school. We remembered what was growing in the field on our last walk and how the field looks now it has been harvested.
We then learnt all about what Harvest means and seasonal fruits that grow in Kent and at this time of year. We designed a fruit salad using seasonal fruits and made a fruit salad by choosing our fruits and the yoghurt topping we would like to add more flavour. We had a choice of vanilla, strawberry and coconut. Vanilla was by far the favourite!
We made some Harvest art then enjoyed a talk from Mr Gaskain telling us all about his farm and the food that is produced there.

Computing 14.09.2022 -
Today in computing we followed instructions carefully. To begin, we logged onto the computer and Purple Mash on our own using our card. It was tricky but we all managed to do it. Once we had logged onto Purple Mash we had to find the art program and explore the tools. We used the size tool, drag and drop and colouring changing tool. We created a piece of art using as many different tools as we could. If you would like to practice this more at home please use the card in the front of your reading record to log on to Purple Mash at home. It is great fun!
Everything you see below this is from last academic year. It will give you an idea of what we will be up to in the year to come!
Fundraising day 2022
Class 1 visit Wildwood
Class 1 have had a fantastic sports week. They have been very busy and active, enjoying participating in a wide range of sports. One of our favourites was athletics. We learnt how to throw the discus correctly, run effectively and work as a team in a relay. This week we designed our own sports medal, created some art work using a range of sport illustrations and making effective backgrounds and looked why the Commonwealth Games are important and their history. What a fab week, ending in an amazing sports day!
