Parbold Douglas CE Academy

We have enjoyed learning all about the life cycle of a butterfly in reception. We learnt a song that tells us all about the life cycle and enjoyed singing it with actions😁 #pdascience #pdamusic

We used AI to help us generate an image of Pangea. We then used adjectives to describe the environment using our phonics knowledge to support our spelling🦕 #pdahistory #pdaict #pdaenglish

Today we used number lines and numicon to consolidate our understanding of ordering numbers to 20. Great job Year 1! #pdamaths

As part of our rivers unit in #pdageography, we looked at the most famous river in our country, the River Thames. We found out where it starts from (the source), where it ends (the mouth) and which sea it flows in to. We also found out what people use The Thames for 💦🏊‍♀️🚣‍♂️🛥️

This morning, we’ve been writing up the final version of our explanation texts to explain how our inventions work! What beautiful presentation, Year 3! Well done!!

We’ve begun a new English topic learning about the fictional planet of Pandora. We are learning to use scientific language to form a Non-chronological report about life on this planet. To discover more, we spoke to a carefully constructed AI chatbot about the planet. #pdaEnglish

Yesterday, we took part in Remembrance Day moments of reflection. This week, we will be creating poems based on remembrance in our English. We used the poem ‘Alive with Poppies’ to help us draw on key themes and created this amazing digital art work. #pdaart

Well done to Year 6 who won the Golden Broom last week! Some may argue it was an accolade that was overdue. However this was more down to the outstanding efforts of Mrs. Jonker. Keep up the hard work Year 6!

Thank you to the team at @MKickabout for sending out these great resources for us to use at school. Our young leaders cannot wait to get these out during breaks and lunchtimes to lead games and activities for everyone to get involved in. #pdape
