This week the children were consolidating place value using two-digit and three-digit number cards. They enjoyed playing the interactive maths games on the boards and they are trying hard to improve their 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables. The children have been problem-solving using Lego and plastic animals.

During humanities, Form 2 have been learning about Scotland and they had an excellent discussion about the Loch Ness Monster. Some children believe that he or she exists, others do not believe and we have a few who are unsure. It was fascinating to hear their different views and opinions.

In science, they were listening to different sounds and they had to guess what they were. They loved experimenting with the string telephones and they found out that if the string is kept tight, the sound waves would travel more effectively than a loose string. Form 2 realised that the loose string causes the vibrations to travel all around rather than directly down the string.

During our PSHE lesson the children acted out different emotions and they enjoyed discussing the different scenarios.

The class continues to practise the play. Wow! They are getting so excited and can’t wait to perform Say Hello to Little Jo.
