Sequencing

03-12-2024

This week in Mathematics, the children in class RJP have been focusing on sequencing. We explored the vocabulary, how ‘sequencing’ means to repeat a pattern. The children used paint to create an ‘ABBA’ pattern firstly, following the pattern, ‘red, green, red, green’. We then had lots of fun demonstrating the ‘ababab’ pattern using Christmas pictures, and designing a colourful paper-chain. To extend the learning, we explored different patterns, expanding on the number of picture cards, colours, and using shapes which have been learned previously. This helps the children problem solve sequencing in a fun way.
Why not keep up this learning at home, by asking the children to make repeated patterns using different objects.

Cyanotype

03-06-2025

Year 3 have been exploring artists who use natural materials. Anna Atkins created one of the first books with photographs in it without using a camera! We practised the same technique she did nearly 180 years ago. We used light sensitive paper and natural things we found to create our cyanotype photos.

150 years!

03-06-2025

Our school is now over 150 years old! To celebrate, we are dedicating some work this week to look at our school through time and what events have happened during its time. We started off our week by looking at photos of “Chatsworth Street School” and the area around our school. Everyone was so excited and had lots of questions about our school.

We went to our “Smithdown Archive” today to look at the log books from Chatsworth Street School. Some of the books are nearly as old as our school so we took extra care looking at them.

Timeline of events

We have worked super hard to create a scaled timeline of events in Liverpool and our school from 1874 to 2025. We added in things like when our school was created, the blitz in Liverpool, boys and girls merged in school and when our local mosque was built.

Smithdown Drama

11-06-2025

We had AS Creative deliver a super session to link with our 150 years celebrations. Year 3 we’re looking at events through our school’s life, so in our session we focused on WWII. We did freeze frames to represent evacuation, rationing and the blitz. It was a great way to think about the children who would have experienced this event in our school in 1939-1945.
