Key stage 1s product this term is a recipe book so this afternoon we have enjoyed looking at a variety of examples. The children were talking about which meals were healthy and the different features that we have been learning about. A great session of children enjoying reading a different genre of text.
During this term class 9 have planted some cress and have been watering it every day to ensure it grows. As you can see, Rhys has the best cress at the moment. It must have had plenty of light, water and nutrients!
Harrison was so proud to share his home learning in our crew session this morning. He created his own work following on from our learning in the previous case study about what plants need to grow, as well as labelling the parts of a plant! I was so impressed!
Thanks so much for sharing your learning! Well done
In our food design and technology case study, we are looking at how a balanced diet can help us to stay healthy. The children today looked at the features of a recipe, including the different sections, such as titles, sub-headings and bossy verbs etc…
Today they made a healthy wrap and had a go at grating, chopping, spreading and cutting a variety of food. I hope you all enjoyed them!
Today in G block year 2 have had a lovely morning painting sunflowers, they’re not quite finished yet but can’t wait to see the finished piece next week! Great work everyone!
Today in maths the children have had a practical lesson on measuring, using resources to measure different items in the classroom. Well done everybody you all worked great in your groups!

What a fantastic hook back into our learning after the half term holidays we enjoyed this afternoon. Mr Lamb, who had already given us the benefit of his expert knowledge about castles earlier in the year, came into school to explain what being an opera singer entails. He talked us through the process of learning and practising a song, and showed us the costumes and make-up he wears when performing. We joined in with some vocal exercises before Mr. Lamb performed part of ‘Toreador’ from the opera, Carmen. The children were transfixed! They then were allowed to try on some of the hats and masks that Mr Lamb wears. What an amazing experience. Thank you so much Mr Lamb.
We welcomed a fantastic visitor today, who talked to us about his career as an opera singer. As music was our first case study, Martin really helped to further our knowledge in this subject and we were blown away by his voice…literally! I think it’s safe to say the children enjoyed it very much!
