World Habitats!
Over the last few weeks we have been looking at different habitats where plants and animals live and how they have adapted to survive. Did you know their are microhabitats all around us? Well this week we are focusing on bigger world habitats. We didn't know much about them so we used the ipads and books to research our chosen habitat. We will be making our habitats in our arts and crafts afternoon tomorrow with our grown ups! We are very excited!
Let's get creative....
What a fantastic afternoon! Thank you to all the parents that came to our parent's craft session, the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The habitat boxes from around the world were outstanding!
Week 2 - w/c 15/04/2024
DT - Wheels and Axles
The class 2 children have worked collaboratively with the year 1 children in class 1 to make a moving vehicle. They have really enjoyed designing, building and testing their designs and we are so super proud of how they have worked together in their pairs! Well done!! 
In Maths this week we have started our time topic. We have started with learning how to read and interpret a calendar using the months of the year and days of the week. We have been looking at which days and months come before and after. We learnt all about leap years and how many days in a year. We learnt some songs to help us.
Ordering months of the year and dates in calendar order
Week 1 - w/c 08/04/2024
Reading Champions!
In Mrs Miller and Mrs Levick's literacy group, we love to challenge ourselves when reading. We are becoming very confident when reading aloud with great pace, expression and accuracy! We are becoming brilliant at retrieving information from texts we have read and are building excellent comprehension skills.
Super shark researching!
For the first 3 weeks of Summer term, we are focussing on non-chronological reports. We have looked at the features of this text type and have begun to research our chosen topic for writing..... duh-de....duh-de....duh-de....duh-de.... sharks! The children are really enjoying using their researching skills, looking at a range of sources to find out more about these amazing animals!
