We have had such an amazing first term in Year 5! We have been busy designing, making and evaluating our cam toys, learning how to play jingle bells in music, exploring forces and writing fantastic missing chapters for our class text: Viking Boy. We are now experts on all things Viking and fractions are now our friends!
The Year 5 team wishes everyone a very happy and restful winter break.
Years 2, 3, 4 and 5 enjoyed a musical performance assembly from Norwich School today.
They were able to hear different instruments and think about how it made them feel.
Thank you to Norwich School for providing our pupils with this opportunity.
Year 6 have been enjoying weekly steel pan music lessons. They have been getting to grips with the different notes and sounds all whilst learning about where steel pans originate from!
Year 3 enjoyed beginning their Charanga unit on glockenspiels yesterday.
They looked at notes D and E and impressed Miss Peek with their call and response skills!
Year 3 explored Heather Hansen’s gestural art today.
They listened to different pieces of music and thought about how it made them feel. They used charcoal to create art and patterns inspired by her.
Some children enjoyed a music recital at Norwich Cathedral this afternoon.
They enjoyed hearing the piano, a cello and a vocalist.
They represented our school well and we are very proud of them.
Year 4 are really enjoying their instrumental lessons as part of their music curriculum. This week they were able to learn the note ‘B’ and even play along to a simple song.
Miss Peek was very proud to pop in and hear Mrs Stevenson’s class progress.
Year 3 have been exploring different musical notes and vocabulary this term. They even had a go at writing their own this week.
They now know what a crotchet, minim and quaver is and are working hard on remembering the note values too.
As part of computing, year 3 were able to code and create their own bands on scratch! What a musical week!
Some KS2 pupils went with Miss Peek and Miss Forrest to Norwich Cathedral for a music recital this afternoon.
They were able to enjoy a short concert featuring piano, french horn and violin. The children heard a range of music and were even able to ask questions.
Thank you to Norwich School for hosting.
A big thanks to Norwich High School for visiting KS2 music assembly today.
The children participated in a singing workshop before listening to a flute, French horn, clarinet, piano, saxophone, vocal and African percussion recital.
