This morning, we were sorting 2D shapes. We have sorted them using their properties - amount of sides, amount of vertices, colour. 
 

This afternoon, we were sorting foods in Science. We had to think of different ways we could group the foods we were given. We sorted them by how healthy they were, what food group they are, taste, how much sugar they had. 
 

This morning, we began making our decorations with the help of a returning Mrs Brown! 
 

This afternoon, Year 2 and Year 3 had a great, interactive lesson from Niscu all about the Christmas story.

This afternoon, we were practising our cutting skills for when we make a decoration next week. We were very careful and trying to cut as neatly as possible.

This morning, Year 2 were using base 10 to add two two digit numbers together. They were amazing at it and soon moved onto adding without the base 10!
 

This afternoon, Year 2 went dragon hunting around the school. We found quite a few and we’re using prepositions to describe where we found them.

This afternoon, we were mixing primary colours to make the secondary colours. We then used all the colours to make firework art.

Today, we have been looking at buildings from 1666 and using our observation skills to make detailed drawings of them for a 3D diorama.

This morning, Year 2 were investigating how many numbers they could make with only six pieces of Base 10. It was a challenge to find all of them!

This afternoon, Year 2 were challenged to make a free standing structure with art straws and nothing else. They had to be resilient and not give up if they fell down. I was very impressed.

This afternoon, Year 3 were cheerleading with Mrs Winder. It was great!
