Class 2

Maths is about having fun! Today class 2 danced, sang and played games to help them learn the 7 times table. 
 

What a great we had this morning! Class 2 visited The Lamb, home of Tamworth Football club, to train on their pitch. They took part in shots of goal, penalty shoot out and mini matches. Thank you so much to Tamworth Football Club Academy coach Ethan and all of the staff at Tamworth Football…

We really enjoyed creating our Christingles for our service. 

Today we had a fantastic PE session delivered by Ethan from Tamworth Football club. It was a fantastic opportunity for our children and we know he was impressed with our developing skills. We can’t wait to go to The Lamb in a few weeks!

This week in science we applied our knowledge of changing states to create our own ice cream. Method and recipe coming soon.

Class 2 have been working hard debugging codes and creating codes to write letters. It took resilience and metacognition to be successful. Well done everyone!

Our next stop around the world was India. We caught the steamship over then travelled by train through the Indian jungle. We even rode on an elephant! Where will our journey take us next?

This week we completed a great investigation focusing on melting points. We looked at how adding heat could change something from a solid to a liquid. Which do you think melted quickest the jelly or the chocolate?

In English this term our focus text is Around the World in 80 days. This morning we attempted the same journey as Mr Fogg. We boarded our train in London and visited several countries across Europe taking in the sites, sounds and smells from our train window. Next stop, India.

This week in science we have furthered our understanding of states of matter through some exciting investigations. 
Why don’t you try one at home, pop some raisins in a glass of lemonade and see what happens.

Over the holidays the children were given an optional task of creating shadow puppets based on their learning from their science unit on light. This week we have watched all of the shadow puppet plays, it was fantastic to see all of the hard work that went into these. Well done! What a creative…

Year 3 and 4 have been investigating materials and using their comparison skills to determine whether they were solids, liquids or gasses. They then grouped the materials into vent diagrams looking at whether some materials could be categorised as both.
