Welcome to Hawthorns Class

In Geography we have been learning about the four countries that make up the United Kingdom. We learnt a traditional Scottish dance called 'The Highland Fling."

We have been learning about autumn and have made some animals from the things we found on our autumn walk around school.

March 2023 - We went to Rosemoor to enhance our learning about plants.

World Book Day 2023

In Music, we listened to a piece of music by Edvard Grieg, which told a story involving trolls. So we made our own troll masks and then danced to the music.

In maths we have been thinking about place value within 20. We had a digit card each and had to place it on a blank number line explaining why we placed it where we did.

In Science we have been learning about the different seasons and the weather. We did an experiment to find out how cold it got over night in January. We left water out over night and it turned into ice decorations.

21.11.22 - In Art we have been learning how to draw eyes, noses and mouths. We have used these skills to draw our self portraits.

18.11.22 - Children in Need

15.11.22. In computing we have started to learn about coding. We gave the bee-bots a set of instructions to see if we could make them move to where we wanted!

10.11.22 - We made poppies for Remembrance Day.

3.11.22 - In History we have been learning about significant historical events in our local community. Hatherleigh Carnival is over 100 years old and this year we made some crepe paper bunting to decorate our school.

20.10.22 - In Creative Thursday today we made sculptures of autumn animals. Can you guess the animal?

19.10.22 - In Science today we helped Mrs Jacob identify the flavours of different crisps using our sense of smell and taste. We were very good at knowing which colour bag the crisps belonged to.

18.10.22 - In RE we have been thinking about the creation of Earth. We enjoyed going into the woodland and thinking about living in an amazing world.We also created some lovely art work back in class.

This half term in Geography we have been learning about where we live. We have learnt where Hatherleigh is on the map and can identify the four countries and their capital cities, that make up the United Kingdom.

13.10.22 - We have been learning about our number bonds in class using our part part whole model.

In DT this half term we have been learning about playgrounds and how to make play equipment. Below are some of our designs.

30.9.22 - The whole school went to Broomford Estate Manor house for a whole school walk. We had lots of fun exploring.

After hearing the sad news about Queen Elizabeth II, Hawthorns class talked about her life and remembered celebrating her Platinum Jubilee together in the summer. Below are some of the portraits drawn by Hawthorns of the Queen.

In class we have been learning about Remembrance Day and why the poppy is so important. As groups we worked together to make a poppy wreath.

Well done Hawthorns for all joining in and completing our Mini Marathon. (20 laps of the playground). It was a great class effort and I certainly enjoyed completing it with you in between the showers!

We are learning about our local community in geography. We read a story about a little boy who lived in a town and went to visit Grandad who lived on a farm. The children were then given the challenge to create a feature of a town or farm.

Dance with Miss Squire.
