Good afternoon everyone,
VE Day
This week we have talked about VE Day and the class were fascinated by the event and how life would have been in the past. We discussed rationing, wartime morale, the Blitz, and the importance of peace.
Thanks,
Have a good weekend!

As part of our Seaside topic, the class have started learning about the village of Mousehole in Cornwall and we have looked at the first page of the story - The Mousehole Cat.
Maths has been all about using different methods to work out number sentences, and the whole class have worked very hard on answering missing number questions.
In PE this week, year two warmed up playing a game of spider tig followed by a game of 'What time is it, Mr. Wolf?'. We also enjoyed our tennis lessons, led by Mat from Thongsbridge Tennis Club.
Class 2 have designed their own campervans and have thought about what materials and equipment they might need in DT.
In our spelling lessons, we have practiced spelling homophone words and making sure that we select the correct word for the correct meaning.
The class spent one afternoon looking at old photographs of seaside holidays and thought about what had changed and what had stayed the same.
Thank you and have a nice bank holiday weekend!

Good afternoon everyone,
First off, welcome back to everyone after the Easter holidays. Here in class two, we have started our new topic about the seaside.
In English, we have been trying to make some poems inspired by the seaside and we have illustrated pictures linked to our poems. The pictures we created were based on art by Nick Sharratt.
During our maths lessons, we have been adding in a quick way, using our tens and ones to solve problems and have used money as well.
In history, the class started looking at google maps to see what different seaside places look like and what features they can have.
For DT this half-term, the class are going to make mini campervan toys to play with and we started learning about wheels and axles.
We have enjoyed the lovely weather this week and headed out onto the field to practice some athletics activities ready for sports day later on this term. We used javelins, eggs and spoons, shotputs and batons.
Thank you for reading and have a nice weekend!
from Mr. H. and Class Two!

Good afternoon everyone,
This week, I am going to start off with history. The class are experts at how the Great Fire of London started and why it lasted so long. The children thought about what should happen to the damaged areas of London and began to design new homes that would not pose the same risks as the old ones. They thought about the choice of materials and the spacing of the buildings to rebuild a safer and more modern London.
In maths, the class have enjoyed using various methods of working out to solve problems in various maths games and during our English lessons over the week, the children have drafted and wrote up a newspaper article about the Great Fire and include lots of facts and information that they have learned over the course of the half-term.
Thanks everyone, have a good weekend!

Science week!
The MOST exciting part of this week has had to be Science Week! The class got into groups with the year one and reception children and enjoyed and participated in a carousel of six different experiments! The class two children were brilliant role models and helped the younger children out.
