Just a little reminder that class 8 and 9 will be holding their family learning tomorrow (Wednesday 25th January) at 2pm. Please come dressed in appropriate clothing as we are going to enjoy a fun keep fit session together with the children. We are learning all about healthy bodies and exercise is a very important part of this…healthy bodies, healthy minds!
Can’t wait…see you all then!

Near and dear.
Year 2 had a wonderful PE session this week, in preparation for our family learning next week. We danced it out! This term we will be looking at keeping healthy and how exercise and diet can affect our bodies, so we started with a quick game of zoo keepers before doing some exercise in the form of dancing. It was so much fun!
Mrs Shaw’s spelling group will be having their test on Tuesday next week. Have a lovely weekend!

We started a new unit of work in Pe today, where we are going to be practising batting a ball and catching it. We began by playing a warm up game and then explored our catching skills with a partner and then in a small group. I was really impressed…can’t wait to see what the batting skills are like next week.
please remember we do PE every Thursday so the children will need a suitable PE kit!
Thanks

The children have really enjoyed our music case study and have loved reading our core text Stan and Mabel. They wrote postcards as the main characters about the adventure they went on in the story. I was really impressed with the standard! Well done crew!

Today we started our new text, which is about a variety of animals who love music and decide they want to be the best orchestra in the world.
After reading the book, the children sorted instruments into string, wind and percussion. They then created their own story maps using time connectives to retell the story. I was so impressed with the outcome and their fantastic learning about music this week!
Well done class 9…so proud as always!
