Welcome to Franklin Class. I am Mrs Bassett and I am the class teacher.

Investigating the Circulatory System<\/strong><\/p>

In science, we have been learning all about the heart and the job in does inside our body. We discovered that the heart is a powerful muscle that pumps blood around the body and we created models to represent this using glass jars and balloons.<\/p>

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Forest School<\/strong><\/p>

This half term, we enjoyed Forest School together as a class. We created our own journey sticks using the natural resources we could find. To attach them to our sticks, we had to practise different types of knots. We also had to try and gather as many different types of leaf as possible. \u00a0<\/p>

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Investigating Heart Rate<\/strong><\/p>

In science, we used a pulsilogium to measure our heart rate. We had to work as a team to create our own pulsilogium, decide how to carry out the experiment fairly and design our own table to record our results.<\/p>

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Creating Blood<\/strong><\/p>

To help us understand the different components that make up our blood, we created our own. We used items such as cheerios and marshmallows to represent the different parts of the blood. We used these models to help us explain our learning. \u00a0\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Multicultural Week<\/strong><\/p>

For Multicultural Week this year, we learnt about Mexico. We learnt about the famous Day of the Dead festival and decorated our classroom using paper flowers and bunting. We also designed our own altars using our knowledge of the festival. In art, we learnt about Frida Kahlo and created self-portraits in her style. To end the week, we tried some Mexican nachos whilst enjoying our class treat. \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"<\/p>

Biomes in a Box<\/strong><\/p>

In geography this half term, we have been learning about biomes around the world. To end this unit, we designed our own Biomes in a Box which we recreated with our grown ups at our parental engagement workshop. We created some fantastic biomes using a range of resources to create the landscape and some of the living things that would live in each one.<\/p>
