Wednesday Round-Up

Class 7 have been busy today … we have been learning about vertical lines of symmetry in maths and life-cycles in expedition. We have also enjoyed some extra-curricular learning too, such as: how to blog and the permissions needed to post photographs of others, as well as all about the dumbo octopus courtesy of Reef’s beautiful ‘Ocean’ book which he has brought in to share with us.

Our learning legend today is Annabel who has been kind and tidied our classroom as well as producing some lovely sentence work in expedition / English. Well done!

Poppy’s Home Learning

Class 7 were super impressed with Poppy’s home learning that she shared with us. Not only has she produced some lovely artwork, she has also been practising all of the learning we have been doing in class recently … making amounts with coins, 2D shapes, arithmetic and food chains! Well done, Poppy.

Awesome Art in Class 7

A special shout out to Francesca who has brought in her fabulous home learning turtle artwork.

And also to all the boys and girls in Class 7 who produced some fabulous sculpture work with Mrs Hardman this afternoon – she was super impressed!

Guess My 2D Shape

Class 7 have enjoyed playing a mystery shape game as part of their learning about 2D shapes today. We worked with a partner to recreate 2D shapes using lollipop sticks that our partner then had to label.

Week 4 Spellings in Year 2

Today, Year 2 have been introduced to their new spellings for the week – using the /j/ sound when it is spelt ‘dge’ / ‘ge’ . Take a look at the words we are practising below and remember to practise them for our next spelling test on Tuesday (because Monday is a training day!).

How do you eat yours?

Today, Class 7 have enjoyed learning about herbivores, carnivores and omnivores in our expedition science lesson where we worked collaboratively to sort animals using a Venn diagram.

Special shout outs were awarded by the children today, and go to … Kaila who was very brave in starting her new gymnastics class at the weekend; Harry who is always helping to keep our classroom tidy and in order – real stewardship; and, Cara who has been extra kind today in helping her crew mates with their learning. Well done boys and girls!

Money Problems and Friday Celebrations

Today, Class 7 worked collaboratively to have a go at solving a wide range of mathematical problems involving money before our touchdown to end the unit.

Special shout outs go to Teddy who was our Out of this World hero and to Annabel who brought in this stunning coral reef model as part of her home learning … well done to both!

KS1 superstars!

We have had an amazing week in KS1. Lots to celebrate…

Lots of people have been working so hard in their learning, have shown that they are kind crew members and have been making good choices. We have had some awesome readers, getting or reader of the week as well as lots of reading certificates that have been achieved too!

Crew Rodgers and Crew Good won joint attendance this week, with 100% so get to keep Paddington and Jemima for the week! I wonder who will get Paddington or Jemima next week?

We are all so proud of the children! Thank you to everyone for continuing to work hard, get smart and be kind! Keep up the hard word, and maybe it could be YOU next week?
