39We walked around our local area today and took pictures of different, important places of interest #smithdowngeog
36In Geography this afternoon we used an atlas to help us name the countries of the UK and the capital cities. We worked so well with a partner #smithdowngeog
36.We then moved onto learning about the surrounding waters of the UK. We completed a jigsaw of the UK and used a map to help us to label the water around us. #smithdowngeog
32Today we explored our local area using Google maps. We used our postcode to find our own homes and spotted familiar places around school too. #smithdowngeog
36Year 2 had such a good time on the tour bus looking for local landmarks and your behaviour was exceptional too #smithdowngeog
36Learning about endangered animals in #smithdowngeog what threats each are facing and what needs to be done to help.
29How AMAZING is this piece of work informing us about the consequences of palm oil! ? So informative and so incredibly well presented. #smithdowngeog #smithdownwriters
41After locating places using 4 digit grid references, we progressed to 6 digit references today.
13In Reception we enjoyed reusing our milk cartons to make musical shakers using natural objects outdoors.
11In Geography, we have been designing our very own islands. When completed, they will show OS symbols and we will locate places using 6 figure grid references.
14We have started our watercolour skylines to link with our Walking Tour of Liverpool which we wrote in Geography.
not finished yet, but they’re looking good already.
Here is a FABULOUS finished skyline picture to accompany our Geography work on our ‘Walking Tours Around Liverpool.’ Amazing work from this young artist.
21We created posters on Word.
We shared our favourite animals, changed the font, colour, size and style and even added images too,
Amazing work Year 2
36We have created our volcanoes and painted them. They look amazing! We are going to erupt them this week and see what happens when an active volcano blows. Watch this space…
10Our first group created their very own authentic traditional bolognese sauce! We have linked our DT unit with our Geography topic of Italy. Super behaviour and sensible cooks.
9We had an amazing afternoon erupting our volcanoes! We even had a very dangerous and violent composite volcano with thick magma which increased the pressure when erupting.
10This week year 5 have compared Liverpool to the city of Manaus in Brazil and plotted data and different style graphs.
7We had our second group to make our traditional Italian bolognese. They had a great time preparing the ingredient and seasoning it to perfection! Thanks to our amazing head chef once again – Monica.
5I’m sure many of us thought we would never witness a volcanic eruption!!! Today we did. The children in year 3 have been learning about volcanoes. We created our own, painted these and even made them erupt! We a had so much fun doing this experiment!!!
We made our own maps of Lila’s village and used compass point directions to direct a friend around the map.
6As part of our Geography topic we are comparing Kenyan villages and cities with Liverpool. We are making pic collages in computing to depict life in each area. On Thursday we made our Village posters of Maasai. Keep your eyes peeled for more next week as begin to compare and contrast in more detail,
