@MissObhi

Oracy is a powerful tool for learning; by teaching students to become more effective speakers and listeners we empower them to better understand themselves, each other and the world around them. Could oracy make a difference in your school? https://t.co/skGOiofijw https://t.co/L7JagFY4oU

Our little and often approach to our diary entry writing has allowed our Year 5s to fully explore the features of this type of text and for us to introduce them to parenthesis for the first time. We are four very proud Year 5 teachers. #scrapbooking #Armstrongthemouse https://t.co/nT6lMzLYY8
@Miss_Smith_OJS

Scrapbooking has been a fabulous end of unit outcome for our work on 'Armstrong'. The children have loved presenting their work (half from home learning and half from school) in this very creative way, taking inspiration from 'Archie's War' which we explored in Year 3. (1/2) https://t.co/EuQOlyWZ11

@MrMJEllis @MenTeachPrimary @MrWithersAHT @DavisonMiss @Mr_Chaperon_ @KWeston06 @PrimaryRocks1 @PrimaryIdeas @Alex_Bramley3 @MrsLisseman Well done 4E! Fabulous work all round, particularly those commas I have spotted after your fronted adverbials.

Most importantly, thank you to all the children who have been a part of 4T over the past three years, you have taught me just as much as I have taught you!
@MissWilkinson4W

Just like that it's time to say goodbye to Overdale Junior School. Having been a student at the school myself, I couldn't think of a better place to start my career as a teacher. Thank you to all the staff and parents for being so supportive :) (1/2)

Into the afternoon and @VikingHrothgar is introducing us to a Viking game with similarities to chess. Can Y4 work together to move orthagonally and beat Hrothgar? We have such perfect weather today for outdoor learning @ojs_y4 #vikingday https://t.co/wv43dsOBKk
@MissWilkinson4W

Our day began with our classrooms being raided and @VikingHrothgar taking us out to his camp. So far we've been learning about weapons. Children are so engaged, with many volunteering to be attacked with the various weapons! (all still alive so far) #immersive #vikingday https://t.co/KHiyS2QFNe

A Year in a Bottle To reflect on the year, each child put all of their favourite memories into their own bottles and took them It was a lovely chance to share what we had enjoyed, learned and achieved. https://t.co/u9b4oPEsNG

@OJScookandgrow My favourite !
@DavisonMiss

@AJMagicMessage @pdLouiseP @WhiteRoseMaths @ICT_MrP @annemathswatson @MarkLabbett @TheShaunWallace @OUPPrimary @Amie_Science *especially fab
@DavisonMiss

@pdLouiseP @WhiteRoseMaths @ICT_MrP @annemathswatson @MarkLabbett @TheShaunWallace @OUPPrimary @Amie_Science Yes they got on brilliantly. Today with so many of them some took on their own investigations too. They continued the pattern on much further and started to conjecture about future totals using what they knew. They were brilliant.
@DavisonMiss

@pdLouiseP @WhiteRoseMaths @ICT_MrP @annemathswatson @MarkLabbett @TheShaunWallace @OUPPrimary @Amie_Science Have now delivered the Numicon cross totals activity to year 3, 5 and then 90 year 6's today .... Can definitely confirm: it's absolutely brilliant. So much conversation, collaboration and creative thinking
@DavisonMiss

@DarrellWakelam @MrWithersAHT @Eastfield_Leics @MrTs_NQTs @MenTeachPrimary @PrimaryIdeas @Bepschools @WreakeValleyAc @mrs_darl Thankyou so much for your kind words! The children loved hearing them. The book has certainly captured their imaginations
@MrMJEllis

"She liked everything she owned, but most of all she loved her birds." The Golden Cage book has had such a huge impact on the year group these past two weeks. Great writing outcomes and now these awesome sketches using sketching pencils. I highly recommend it https://t.co/bULMJWmEjv
@MrMJEllis

One of my favourite CPA sequences started today The children got to grips with the concept of finding the perimeter with this task Top tip: ask the ch to make a shape with an odd numbered perimeter. (It's not possible) A great way to check understanding #CPDin15mins https://t.co/Gpn9Yv3ljd
@MrMJEllis

@MissGibbs15 @leanne_wynne @PrimaryIdeas @MrTs_NQTs @WhiteRoseMaths @MrWithersAHT @MenTeachPrimary @Eastfield_Leics @Bepschools It was exactly as someone tweeted. The children made a square first out of tape and then put tape inside it. They then coloured it in and then finally moved the tape. The Year 5s measured the angles today and the year 3s identified some of the angles aswell. Worth a go for sure.
@MrMJEllis

When the weather is like this, we should take learning outside The Year 4 children created and could then identify angles within their own and other pieces of artwork today. Simple but effective https://t.co/kdsnjltgp8
