Team Starlings: 3D Models in Computing
In Computing this week, we have been making 3D models using digital software! We have really enjoyed exploring how to change the size of various 3D shapes, layer objects on top of one another, and create our own mini 3D worlds! Over the course of this module, we will apply our knowledge to create…

Team Starlings learn Semaphore!
In Team Starlings, our current topic is all about coding! We have become experts in both Morse code and Semaphore, and have really enjoyed both encrypting and decrypting various secret messages in our classroom! During our lesson on Semaphore, we made flags and practised sending messages across a…
Vector Drawing in Team Starlings
In our computing lessons this half term, we have been learning how to create digital art using vector line drawing. This involves taking simple shapes and lines and layering them to create an image. We have been inspired by Matisse's 'Vegetables' and have now moved on to creating our own images by…
Computing on the move!
In Team Badgers, we have been preparing to bring home our i.Pads so that our computing and all of our learning is really 'on the move'! In our lesson this week, we revised how to stay safe online and set up our accounts on Times Table Rock Stars so that we can practise our maths along with other…
Coding in Team Starlings!
Team Starlings are becoming expert programmers, using code to make all sorts of amazing creations on 'Scratch.' This week, we have been designing mazes, and programming the 'sprite' ,(in the case, the beetle), to move through the maze without touching the black line. We are looking forward to…
Stembotics fun in Year 4!
Year 4 (Hedgehogs) had Hyett Education’s Stembotics workshop in for the day. We had a great time building and programming the Lego robots. We even impressed the workshop leader so much with our teamwork, that we were able to choose our own project for the afternoon session.
