Miss Mulligan’s Class

We are all very excited about our new class book: The Wild Way Home by Sophie Kirtley

"I'm in the Stone Age aren't I?"

When Charlie's baby brother Dara is born with a problem in his heart, Charlie RUNS. Runs to the forest, with its sheltering leaves that shut out trouble and hurt and fear. But in the forest is a boy lying in the river, breathing, though only just. And when Charlie goes for help, the forest has changed. Now it's something vast and strange. Something ancient. Something WILD.

And Charlie is a long, long way from home.

We will be spending two weeks reading the story and exploring the characters and the language that the author has chosen to use. We have already made predictions about what we think will happen.

This term some of the class will be working on money and multiplication and division and some of the class will be measuring length and perimeters before exploring fractions (which often means cake and sweets!).

Come back later to see some of the work we have been doing.

This term we are learning about Evolution and Adaptions with Miss Mulligan planning an exciting investigation about adaptions that have occurred in different types of birds. We love our science investigations and are really looking forward to it.

We have got very special PE lessons this term as we have an instructor from Lincoln Karate coming in to teach us every Thursday! Along with Mr Williams' class, we are the first in the school to have a go at this.

Our Karate lessons will be on a Thursday and children will need their normal PE kit:

Black or blue shorts/tracksuit bottoms

White t-shirt

Plimsolls/trainers

History 

We are going back into pre-history in History this term. We will be studying how people lived during the Stone Ages, the Bronze Age and the Iron Age. Come back later to see the exciting learning we will be doing.

We have begun to play with other children during our big choosings and are beginning to make some good friendships.

During our quieter choosings we really like to play with Plus Plus and we love to explore all the different larger choosings in class.

Here are some pictures of us playing.

Although we manage choosing time really well, Mrs Holroyd often struggles to manage these time and she can sometimes lead us astray! She encouraged us to jump out at Mr Moore during Golden Time and make him jump!

Info will be added ready for the 2025/26 academic year.
