Following instructions
This week in year 5 we tried our best to follow and then evaluate instructions by making salt dough. We read, measured amounts and followed each step. We put our maths skills to use by carefully measuring amounts to create dough with a good consistency. Some of us even made figurines when they dried!

Year 3 Research in the Library
Year 3 have been learning all about information texts and how to read them. We have learnt how to use both a glossary and an index and also about diagrams or pictures and illustrations. We have started researching on a topic of our choice using the non-fiction section of the library. We have each chosen our own topic and made notes from books that we found. The final product will be a mini non-fiction book which the children will produce. Well done Year 3 for your hard work.
(Mr. Jamieson)

Year 4 Blog week 2
It has been another great week for year 4. We have been painting our Tudor Roses, writing newspaper reports about The Battle of Bosworth and finally writing instructional text. Sophie has been a test dummy for being provided instructions by year 4 to her chair… No children were harmed during this activity. Below you can find a gruesome but strangely inspired bit of writing by Pepijn and Wouter.

Floppy’s visit
Floppy’s Visit
Years 2 and 3 have had a visit from Floppy! He is on an International Adventure and Escaan International School is the 9th school he has visited. He came to us from Switzerland and will be traveling to Dubai next.
The children enjoyed looking through his passport and talking about the countries he has visited so far.
The students drew pictures of their favorite Floppy Moments which we made into a fabulous poster and book and we have made postcards of our drawings for Floppy to take with him to his next school.
