Class 2

We have worked hard on our scientific enquiry skills this afternoon investigating factors that affect our shadows. We created our own results table, recorded results and formed conclusions from these.

Years 3 and 4 have been busy editing their independent writing today. We used our purple pens to correct errors in our work after spotting our errors using our funky glasses.

We had lots of fun this afternoon in the outdoor theatre retelling the story of Osiris in our history lesson.

Today we used UV beads to test out how we can protect our eyes and skin from the sun. We tested different factor suncreams to see if they protected the beads and used layers of different transparent materials to investigate how sun glasses protect our eyes.

Today we used lux metres to calculate how much light was reflected off different materials. We used our knowledge of the properties of materials to create scientific predictions and then test our theories.

Class 2 are working hard on their basketball skills. Shoot, pass, dribble!

We have had a fab afternoon investigating light. First of all we played find the object in a darkened room and discovered that dark is the absence of light.Then we completed some self led investigations to find out how light behaved with different materials.

What a fantastic day we have had for our Ancient Egyptian Day!

Thank you parents, all of the costumes were incredible and really enhanced the day. The children looked fab.

We enjoyed learning about a range of topics including family life, gods, mummification and Egyptian maths. What a fab…

This week we looked at the story of Noah. We prepped some questions we would have liked to ask him about how he felt when he was asked to build his ark and then hot seated his answers. Some great investigative work class 2.

Class 2 have been busy investigating metal conductors in their second design and technology lesson in the term. Year 4 used metacognition to recall their previous knowledge about circuits and conductors. Great work everyone!

Lots of maths outside this week. The children investigated place value on the playground, creating giant number lines and hoola hoop part whole models. 
 

We’ve had lots of fun practising our common exception words this week!
