Adventurers / Investigators Archive

1st May – 5th May
Posted: May 1, 2017 by: Teachers (BishopTeachers) on: What's been happening in Adventurers & Investigators.
The children will continue to plant seeds and carry out their investigations entitled ‘What do plants need to grow and stay healthy?’We will agree on ways to begin record our findings.
In numeracy we will carry out activities on fractions in a variety of contexts. Jack and the Beanstalk will definitely be included! If you had ten beans how many would you have left if you shared them equally with a friend?
We will begin the task of planning to write our own version of Jack and the Beanstalk. We have already discussed the main character being a girl living with her dad. We thought she could be called Georgina. We will plan our own stories using a variety of activities such as pictorial storyboards, drama, story shelves, role play. Thanks to Oliver for donating a large card roll so we can make a class beanstalk! We thought it could be the ogre’s toilet roll! I wonder if anyone has one for the Investigators Class so they can make a beanstalk? When we have completed out stories the Adventurers and Investigators will share their stories and ideas with each other.
The Explorers have offered to come and show us their ‘Jack and the Beanstalk’ story map. We are looking forward to seeing it!
