Good afternoon everyone,
Here we are at the end of another fun-filled week in Year Two.
Our English lessons this week have been revolving around some grammar revision. The class have thought about using varied sentences to keep their writing interesting and I have loved reading their writing about monsters using statements, questions, exclamations and commands. They were experts at identifying which types of sentences I was using and ran to the corresponding signs that were out on the playground.
In PE, the class have been working hard at our new learning themes of Prepare, Throw and Catch and Hands, Feet and Equipment. They are using excellent techniques to throw and be ready to receive the ball.
During our DT lesson, the class have started to think about the specification that their puppets will need to fit. We discussed how the puppets are going to be designed for children to use and we explored what materials would be ideal and any safety concerns that the class came up with.
Thanks everyone, have a good weekend.
Mr. H.

Good afternoon everyone,
Today was a very exciting day! I came to school and everyone was dressed in unusual clothes! The children were very excited to see what each other had done for Break the Rules day and on top of this, it was also Plant a Bulb day.
We had a little bit of a treat this morning and did some art linked to Harry Potter and Autumn. We have also had a bonus story time at the start of the day.
In Soda, the class had a go at drawing things that they would like to do during the half-term break.
During music and singing assembly we have practiced our Harvest Rock and Roll and Harvest Tango songs as well as our favourite sea shanties like The Wellerman and What shall we do with the grumpy pirate?
We have been reading the book called 'The Ice Trap' this week and we put together a storyboard of the most important parts of Shackleton's adventure.
Earlier in the week, one group headed out into the forest for some outdoor learning and shared the story 'The Room on the Broom' and even had a snack out there!
Have a lovely half-term and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
Thank you
from Class Two!

Good afternoon everyone!
This week has been busy and brilliant!
We have finally, completed our reading of William Grill's brilliant 'Shackleton's Journey' and found out how the British Trans-Antarctic Expedition finished! It has been some very exciting learning!
The class have enjoyed writing letters to Shackleton from the perspective of his family and I must say, I am very impressed with their work this week. Well done all.
In maths, the class have been practicing their number bonds knowledge and their times tables on a fun game called Funky Mummy! See the link below if you would like to give it a go!

Good afternoon everyone,
It has been a busy week here in class two and a very productive one!
The headlines for the week are that in maths, the class have been awesome at weighing and measuring. They have built on last week's learning about centimetres and metres and discovered grams and kilograms.
During our English learning, the class have written up in best a lovely diary entry from the point of view of one of the crew on Shackleton's expedition.
We have also had a treat by tuning into the NFU's yearly Harvest Live event and learned a lot about how food is harvested and got to learn a little about food from other cultures.
Thanks everyone,
Mr. H.
