Lower School (KS1)

As part of our science and art learning this term we have been noticing the changes in seasons and nature around us. On our visit to Humblescough Farm last week https://inskip.lancs.sch.uk/blog/2022-09-29-18-23-02-humblescough-farm we observed closely the leaves on the trees and ground preparing…

Take a look at the learning our super EYFS children have been doing this week, we have started learning the Phase 2 sounds and the children are making great progress.

What a jam-packed, amazing morning we had this morning when we visited Humblescough Farm in Nateby, Garstang.

Mr Sneddon, you are just fantastic! The children were so excited and enthusiastic to take part in all the activities and we all laughed and loved Mr Sneddon’s jokes and funny stories.…

Take a look at these photos to see some of the learning our EYFS children have been enjoying this week …

This week our Year 1 and 2 children have been comparing numbers and using the greater than, less than and equals symbols. Take a look at these photos and take a look at the video we enjoy watching to help us remember the mathematical symbols.

Last week the children were surprised to find some lost penguins left in our classroom! They sparked lots of questions and the children recorded their questions learning how to use question words and draw question marks. It reminded me of the great story Lost and Found by Oliver Jeffers so I read…

Following our previous learning where we explored the question ‘Why is it important to say thank you?’ This week in our RE lesson we asked ourselves ‘Why do Christians say thank you to God at Harvest time?’.

We talked about God being the creator of the world and everything in it, shared our…

In our music lessons we are learning a song called ‘Heart, Hands and Feet’. This week we have been keeping the beat using instruments as we sing.

What is an animal? Are humans animals? Do you have any animals at home as pets or livestock?

We sparked our science learning by considering these questions this week and it caused some great discussion. The children in Lower School are quite knowledgeable about how to care for animals as…
