Year 3 Pens down day, by Miss Williams

Date: 6th Sep 2022 @ 6:46am

On Monday (5.9.22), we had our Pens’ down day and explored our new topic of the Stone Age. First, there was a present wrapped up in the classroom and when it was revealed it was the book ‘The Stone Age Boy’. We then looked at why the Stone age was called the Stone Age. Then in maths, we looked at an exciting discovery that was found in La Pileta Cave in Spain that looked like drawings . We thought that it could have been a way to count things and then discussed what might they have counted. In Literacy, we looked at the life of a stone age child and learnt about Grey Otter and his life through drawings in caves. We took part in several drama exercises such as  miming game and hot seating. After Literacy, we looked further into when Stone Age was and what periods it was split into by creating a timeline. Then, we created our own cave paintings.

We are an active School!, by Mrs Walsh

At Wistaston Academy, we LOVE being active! Take a look at our facilities for active learning and how we embed active learning throughout the school. Being active makes us feel alive! It means school is fun and makes us want to go to school. Our year 6s share their thoughts and learning about the importance of fostering a healthy, active lifestyle: we believe that a healthy body promotes a healthy and happy mind! At Team Wistaston Academy we believe active learning is something that should include everyone!
