Chase Grammar Prep School

We have seen lots of visits from blue tits and yesterday we managed to catch a clip of a Robin in our new bird feeder which is stuck on our classroom window. Magic. #birdwatching #nature fb.watch/aZgOiqqz-D/

@ChaseLyncroft @ChaseGrammar students completed the #minilondonmarathon yesterday and enjoyed lots of support at their finish line. We will definitely take part next year! #inspiring #LondonMarathon #WeRunTogether #Running #proud

Every child in Prep has made a conker face. This conker class will be making an appearance on our 'Be a tree' display.

We've had a succession of pharaohs in the Year 3 and 4 classroom this week

@ChaseLyncroft Year 1&2 participated in Sky VIP’s Minion Animation Workshop. Brad Ableson explained how to create & personalize  a Minion animation. The results were fantastic and the children were amazed and inspired. #SKYVIP

@JamesSayerMusic You’re very welcome, the children loved it! #betterdaysahead. 😊

Thank you so much! Love it! #betterdaysahead

@ChaseLyncroft KS1 created a snapshot of this academic year! It captures the emotional rollercoaster #COVID19 created. They love 'Better Days Ahead' by @JamesSayerMusic which perfectly accompanies their work. fb.watch/v/1RUw01qIN/ #pandemic #coronavirus #Proud #SignLanguage

#cgsy1 and 2 love their Yoga & Relaxation #enrichment at the end of the school day after #swimming. They are getting really good at their poses too. ⁦@ChaseLyncroft⁩ facebook.com/10608177124523…

#cgsy1&2 wrote the lyrics of this song for all their father-figures on Father’s Day. So proud! #happyfathersday ⁦@ChaseLyncroft⁩ #singing #songwriting facebook.com/10608177124523…

#cgsy1&2 used their iPads to take some clips of the sky during Tuesday’s storm. We were very surprised to find this great clip of constant flashing behind a cloud. I’m told it could be ‘cloud to cloud lightning’. @ChaseLyncroft #nature #Geography #storm #photography #lightning

#cgsY1&2 made bread dough and sculpted hands after learning about the work of Marc Quinn who uses unusual materials in his sculptures. In 1994, Marc Quinn made lots of sculptures of his hands. @ChaseLyncroft @CGS_ART

#CGSY1 and 2 are still exploring materials and they were amazed to see how wax resisted water. Here is a student explaining what we did. #science #materialsscience #magic @ChaseLyncroft

#happymothersday #cgsy1&2 have a special #MothersDay2021 message for their mums today! They learned t the signs for this short poem. 💕 #signlanguage #signs @ChaseLyncroft

#cgsy1&2 loved mixing cornflour&water today. Known as 'Oobleck', it is a non-Newtonian fluid. That is, it acts like a liquid when being poured, but like a solid when a force is acting on it. You can grab it and then it will ooze out of your hands. #ScienceWeek2021 @ChaseLyncroft

Do try this at home! Year1&2 conducted #experiments to find out what affects ice melting. This one was amazing! Compared to placing the ice on plastic and wood, the ice melted so quickly when placed on metal because it’s a better conductor! @ChaseLyncroft #Science #remoteteaching

Year 1&2 have been learning about staying safe in the dark. Here are some of our children wearing their teacher’s #running jackets in class this morning. They were totally amazed at the effect caused by light (flash). @ChaseLyncroft #cgsacademic #Staysafe #BeSeen

It was a frosty morning yesterday so our Early Years students were excited to see their handprints in the ice Snowflake #EYFS #Learning #EarlyYears #PrepSchool

Year 1 and 2 made string telephones to learn about sound waves. Their voice vibrated the air inside the cup, which then transferred to the bottom of the cup. They were amazed to find out that they could really hear each other! #Learning #CGSAcademic

Our Prep School, @ChaseLyncroft have been learning about the history of communication last week, so after looking at the telephones, Leo showed his friends his grandad's very old typewriter. #Education #KS1 #Learning #History #Communication #CGSAcademic
