Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside!
Last week we learnt about the physical features of the seaside and this week we are learning about the human features. We were able to draw on our own experiences from the Seaside and enjoy the images and discussions about the following - lighthouse, promenade, pier, arcades and lifeboats.
Effective searching
Today in computing we started a unit looking at effective searching. We completed a quiz to secure our knowledge and understanding from the lesson. We even completed the closed procedure sentences using all the new key vocabulary we had learned.
Jack and the Beanstalk
We have worked in groups to create an adjective word bank to help us to describe Jack, the Giant and the Beanstalk. We can use these to support our writing!
Spring Spies!
We are learning about the season Spring! Today we have watched a video about nature in Spring and the changes that have happened from Winter. We have made observations about the plants and animals and recorded them in our books. Our minds are blooming with new knowledge!
Blists Hill
Today we went to Blists Hill Victorian Village, linked to our previous learning in history on the victorians. We dressed up as Victorian school children and went to a Victorian school room where we met Mrs McCallester. We discovered it was very different in a Victorian school. After lunch we went…
Informative posters
We created posters to inform people about the importance of hygiene and washing our hands.
Glitter Germs
Today we used glitter to represent germs on our hands. We then went around and shook hands with our friends to see how many germs were transferred onto one another’s hands.
Funky fingers!
Our year two funky fingers learned how to finger knit! With patience and skill we made some colourful bangles!
Buddy Reading
Today, during our celebrations for World Book Day we shared stories with Year 6. We loved our buddy reading time and can’t wait to do it again soon.
Stories, blankets, hot chocolate and biscuits
We finished the day with hot chocolates and biscuits, they went down a treat.
World Book Day Fun
This morning for World Book Day we have been looking at the story Matilda. We drew our favourite character from the text and used our iPads to animate them and bring them to life. We had so much fun doing this and the result was fantastic. Look out for the video to follow!
Funky Fingers
Today in funky fingers our year 2 children got creative peg boards! They created some amazing patterns! They also made some very impressive structures with the construction straws!
