23rd and 24th May
Its Arts Week at school - a whole week of special activities.
On Monday we spent the morning planning a display (controlled by computer) to advertise the programme The Weakest Link and then began to test out some procedures to form part of the control program. In the afternoon we had cycling! Two coaches, one from British Cycling and the other from a local cycling club brought bicycles to our school field and we were taught six different cycling skills which we then practised before taking a timed test incorporating all the different skill. This is part of the Go-Ride scheme and soon we will be able to enter our scores on the Go-Ride web site.
Today it has been "Spanish Day" at school. It began with a flamenco dancer and guitarist performing for us and then we had a short maths lesson with a Spanish theme before making up some simple Spanish books which help us practise vocabulary to do with the body and days of the week. This afternoon we had our Spanish lesson (and our handwriting and PE sessions).
