Listening to God's word
In our RE lessons this term we have been learning how people listen to God's word and calling. Today we went to our Parish Church of Sacred Heart and Holy Souls in Acocks Green to celebrate Mass with the local community.
After Mass we spoke about the special place that the lectern has upon the altar. It is the place that we hear God's word from and the place where we can hear God calling us. Can you find the lectern upon this photo of the Altar of Holy Souls Church.

Making an Igloo
Today Year 3 and Year 5 made the most of the snowy weather and made an Igloo.
We worked as a team to collect snow and mould it into block shapes. Using co-operation and knowledge of 3D shapes, this is what we managed to create.
There was not quite enough snow for a whole igloo - but this was a pretty good effort! Well done everyone!
Check out our other pictures on the TV outside the office.

Does a plant need water to grow?
We set up a fair test experiment to investigate this question.
We have left three green plants ( the same kind) in the same place, (with the same temperature, amount of light and size of pot) for a week.
The only condition we have changed is the amount of water we give to the plant each day.
Plant A has 200 ml of water.
Plant B has 100 ml of water.
Plant C has no water.
We have made predictions and will look at our results next lesson!
