@Morningside_ps #year6 spent their afternoon practising their different stitches as part of their #artandDT learning. We can’t wait to make our slippers later on! 0 1 @Morningside_ps #Year6 are busy preparing for their debate in #writing this week. Ms Immy and Ms Lyn are so impressed by the #oracy in action! 1 3 @Morningside_ps #year5 investigated the best material to insulate. They designed, planned and actioned a fair test, then analysed their results, to discover if their hypothesis was correct. #Science #Physics #primaryeducation #ks2 #STEM #education 0 1 @Morningside_ps Morningside is proud to support @Place2Be #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek (6-12 February). Join us and help shine a light on the importance of children and young people’s #mentalhealth. Find out more and get involved: https://t.co/QMBoGX9SF3 0 2 @Morningside_ps #Year6 put their #science knowledge to the test this afternoon. We played a warm up game of component bingo and then tried to make and break each other’s circuits before recording them in our books. 0 3 @Morningside_ps #year2 created their own Martians, during their immersion lesson. This week they will be retelling the story, The Way Back Home, by Oliver Jeffers. #year2 #writing 0 5 @Morningside_ps The school and Nursery will be closed to all pupils on Wednesday 1st February. On days when the school is closed due to industrial action online learning will be made available by senior leaders. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch. 0 1 @Morningside_ps #year1 Today we started our new unit of work on ‘Australia’. We loved finding it on a globe and an atlas as well as learning how big it is and it being on the other side of the world! #humanities #geography #Australia 0 4 @Morningside_ps #year2 explored different reasons why people should or shouldn’t continue Space Exploration and then they used these reasons to form their own opinions. #year2 #history 0 4 @Morningside_ps Today #Year6 visited the @kinsellatrust to learn about #KnifeCrime and Ben Kinsella’s life. Most importantly, we learned that knife crime is preventable and we made a pledge to never carry a knife. 0 4 @Morningside_ps 4M enjoyed the #dailymile today. It helps us stay fit and healthy! #year4 #PE 0 2 @Morningside_ps Today #year1 practiced using a number line. They looked at the position of the numbers and played what number is missing. They also identified one more and one less. #maths 0 3 @Morningside_ps There has been some excellent partner reading happening in 4M today. We listened to each other read and gave each other helpful feedback. #reading #year4 📖 1 4 @Morningside_ps #year2 enjoyed programming their own interactive stories, using Scratch Jr. #year2 #computing 0 2 @Morningside_ps We had a fantastic PE #dailymile in #Year3 today, even if it was a bit rainy! We love keeping our bodies fit and healthy and it helps us to refocus on our afternoon learning. 0 4 @Morningside_ps #year1 made and wrote a set of instructions to create a windsock. They then tested them outside, really enjoying watching the wind blow them around! #writing #literacy #art #dt 0 8 @Morningside_ps #year1 continued their computing unit developing their awareness of coding and algorithms.#coding #kodable 0 5 @Morningside_ps Building on their previous learning about halving single-digit numbers, #year2 learnt to double two-digit numbers in #maths. They learnt a range of strategies using ten-frames and bar models. 0 3 @Morningside_ps #year1 began their new unit of work on ‘Kodable’ learning the basics of coding and what it meant to code. #computing 0 2 @Morningside_ps In #Year3 #maths we’ve been practicing the redistribution method when adding together 2-digit numbers. We decided that the concrete method was great for helping us to remember to borrow one from one addend and give it to the other, but that the abstract was faster. 0 2 @Morningside_ps Making 3D houses using Tinkercad #year5 #computing 0 6 @Morningside_ps #Year2 enjoyed acting out, recording and narrating the Moon Landing. #year2 #history 0 3 @Morningside_ps #Year1 Today we explored the concept of “five and a bit”. This when we show that a number five and ten can be partitioned. We had fun using our ten frames to make these representations. #maths 0 3 @Morningside_ps In #year4 (4S) we enjoyed learning about square numbers in #maths today! 0 3 @Morningside_ps #Year1 Today we were following instructions on how to make a windsock #Writing 0 4 @Morningside_ps Whilst exploring scale and measurement #year5 discovered that sometimes when multiplying the product is less than the multiplier or multiplicand e.g. 10 x 1/2 = 5 #maths #nctem #ks2 #education #mathsdiscovery #cuisenaire 0 4 @Morningside_ps In #year4 We have been learning about the decline of the population in the ancient civilisation of the Indus Valley. #History 0 6 @Morningside_ps Morningside have signed up as a supporter of #SaferInternetDay, commencing on 7th February! Help @UK_SIC to reach young people by signing up and you'll receive an official certificate of support 0 1 @Morningside_ps Congratulations to all the children for receiving the following awards: 🌟Stars of the week🌟 ➕➖Star #Mathematicians➗✖️ 🎸#TimesTableRockStars✖️ ✏️Star #Writers📖 📚Star #Readers📚 ✖️#TTRockstars✖️ @TTRockStars Presented during January 2023 #Awards #Celebration #Assembly 0 2 @Morningside_ps In #ArtandDT today, #Year3 learnt about the different tones of some primary, secondary and tertiary colours. They mixed watercolour to create darker shades and lighter tints of each colour. 0 7 @Morningside_ps Today in #DT #year4 4S tried different sewing techniques 0 3 @Morningside_ps #Year1 Today we counted within ten,read and wrote number names. We had lots of fun when completing this activity.#maths 0 8 @Morningside_ps Today in #history, year 4 were sorting pieces of evidence that support the three theories about why the Indus Valley Civilisation declined. #year4 0 6 @Morningside_ps #Year2 enjoyed using bar models and counters to find half of different numbers. #year2 #mathematics 0 3 @Morningside_ps Today in #DT, 4M learned three different sewing techniques. We practised the running stitch, over sewing and backstitching. #designtechnology #year4 🪡 0 4 @Morningside_ps In #history, #year2 explored why astronauts wanted to go to the Moon and discussed what the most important reasons were. Afterwards, everyone wrote 3 questions that they wanted to ask our very own Neil Armstrong about what it was like to go to the Moon! 0 5 @Morningside_ps Well done to the year 3 and year 4 tag rugby team! #year3 #year4 #PE 🏉 0 4 @Morningside_ps #year3 were archaeologists today as they uncovered their new #history topic: The Ages! They discovered artefacts and discussed the objects and how they might have been used 600,000 years ago! 0 4 @Morningside_ps In #Year3 we put the main events of the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages on a timeline. We then asked some initial questions about the topic - we hope we’ll be able to answer them by the time we finish our learning! #history 0 7 @Morningside_ps #DT In year 1, we have been designing the final piece of our craft. We designed our own cars using different materials. 0 4 @Morningside_ps #year2 enjoyed Family Friday. 0 3 @Morningside_ps #Year2 loved learning more about the moon landing. They put Historical events in chronological order, discussed a range of sources and decided if statements were factual or non-factual. #year2 #history 0 2 @Morningside_ps #year5 making mazes using Tinkercad in #computing 1 7 @Morningside_ps In #Year3 #history this week we were archaeologists. We learnt that the word comes from the Greek archaia (“ancient things”) and logos (“theory” or “science”). We excavated different items from the Stone, Bronze and Iron Ages. 0 4 @Morningside_ps #Year2 began learning about the Space Race in #history and designed their own space suits. 0 5 @Morningside_ps #Year6 had a fantastic time yesterday at the Junior Citizen Scheme. Thank you to all involved! 0 4 @Morningside_ps Morningside School Council visited @UKParliament @UKParlEducation today. They learned about democracy in action. #PSHE 3 8 @Morningside_ps Today in #ArtandDT, #Year3 described the difference between a shade and a tint and explored various blue and green hues. We mixed our own hues and invented names for them. Some favourites from today were Grinch Green and Hurricane Blue! 0 3 @Morningside_ps #Year1 Today we practised attaching wheels to a chassis using an axle. We talked about which materials were better to use and compared why it was better to use the same sized wheels.#DT 1 9 @Morningside_ps In #year4 #maths have been practicing their times tables, including the 9x and their divisibility rules. We have been practicing our number facts! 0 3
