The children thoroughly enjoyed acting out their routines in the morning. The children wrote sentences using first, then, next, after that and finally. Well done, Form 2.

During maths, they have been consolidating place value and using clocks, learning o’clock, and half past. The children also were seeing what they could do in a minute. They had to balance on one leg, write their name and hop for one minute. This was challenging for some of the children, however they all persevered and were pleased to give each activity their best try. They thoroughly enjoyed playing games on the interactive computer and they managed to get a top score on hit the button.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In science, they had to use their sense of touch to identify the items in the feely boxes. It was very tricky but great fun! They felt the braille on many empty medicine boxes and Form 2 discussed what it would be like to be blind. The children also guided one another around the room to experience the feeling of blindness. They all said that the experience felt a lot more difficult than they had thought.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In humanities, the children sorted past and present pictures into the correct locations and they learned about the invention of the first car.

During Environmental Awareness Week, the children discussed recycling, reusing and reducing. They designed posters to help save the planet. They also learned about their pet whale, Tidal. Tidal lives near Australia and we have sponsored him and we are able to track his movements. We talked about how we could keep the ocean clean to help Tidal and other ocean creatures.

A busy, fun environmental week.
