This week the children have been working incredibly hard! We would like to give focus this week to our PSHE, computing and art work.

PSHE

In PSHE, we have been discussing stereotypes, prejudice and discrimination. The children came up with their own ideas of stereotypes that they have seen in the media and shared these. We have had some very thought-provoking discussions over the impact of stereotyping. Next week, we will be looking at inspirational people who have challenged stereotypes and how they did this. For homework, we would like the children to do some research on somebody who has had to challenge a stereotype and be prepared to share their findings with the class.

Computing

We have been continuing to look at staying safe online and thinking about how we (and others) use social media.

Photography

The children have begun to digitally edit the photos that they took at Purton Hulks on Monday. They are looking amazing! Please take a look at some of the examples below.

Homework

For homework, we would like the children to do some research on somebody who has had to challenge a stereotype and be prepared to share their findings with the class. This may be presented in any form that the children wish, e.g. poster, leaflet, powerpoint, etc.

Forest School

We have now arranged some additional Forest School sessions for the children (originally these were not due to start until Spring term). Forest School will begin on Wednesday 2nd October and will take place during the first session. Please ensure that your children have appropriate kit for Forest School as in previous years.

 

Have a lovely weekend!
