Bird Spotting

As part of our Science work about Animals, Year 1 and 2 went bird spotting around the school grounds. We used our ears to listen for birdsong. We were very quiet so as not to scare any birds away. We saw lots of Magpies, a Crow and a Pigeon.

" The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch"

Year 2 are reading the story, ‘The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch’ and have been using the iPads to search for interesting facts and information about Lighthouses. We found out that the first lighthouse was built in Egypt over 2000 years ago, and that the oldest working lighthouse is in Spain. We also discovered that lighthouses need a lightning rod which stops lightning from causing too much damage.

Counting Money

Year 2 have been doing lots of practical work, counting with money this week. We have been calculating with different amounts and finding the totals using pounds and pence. We also explored how much pocket money we might get for doing different jobs at home.

Great work year 2!

PE in the Sunshine

Year 1 and 2 thoroughly enjoyed their PE lesson outside in the lovely sunshine! They developed their balancing skills through activities using the stepping stones. The children also negotiated space and collaborated with others to travel over and around the stepping stones.

"Me and My World"

Year 1 and 2 have been exploring 'Me and My World'. For their Art lesson, they used mirrors to observe their faces and features and thought about their hair and eye colour. They then chose a variety of collage materials to create a portrait of themselves.
