Class of 2020

Today we are having to say goodbye to one of our class family!  We are very sad to see you go and hope you soon make friends in your new home down South.  I am sure Daddy will be so happy to have all his girls back together under one roof but we will definitely miss you!!  Good Luck and remember…

Some fabulous teamwork here, girls!!!  Look at what you can do when you work together.

We finished our information texts all about wolves today.  We included a lot of great facts in them.  Here we are reading and evaluating each other’s work.

In P.E. this half term we have been developing our gymnastics skills.  We have learnt how to jump, roll, travel and balance.  We also practised putting these actions together to create a sequence.  In these pictures, you can see us applying our skills on the large apparatus.  It was trickier than…

Here we are enjoying the snow and ice.  It was so cold but we had a great time collecting as much snow and ice as we could!

Year 2 been learning about the UK and used their geography skills to locate the UK on a range of maps and globes. We put labels onto the maps to show the four countries of the United Kingdom and the surrounding seas.

Well done, Year 2!

We have been learning all about 2D shapes in maths.  Today we had to use rulers to draw them very carefully.  Here we are practising drawing straight lines on our whiteboards.  It was a lot trickier than it looked but we managed it!

This week we looked at the amazing animals found on the continent of Africa.  After exploring these animals we looked closely at the colour and texture of their skin.  We used careful observation to draw the patterns before using our painting skills to match…

Another example of our very careful drawing and painting today.
