We worked hard to follow instructions and create some bots on some new Lego coding kits. We found this hard work ,but great perseverance and problem solving skills were demonstrated!

The Solar System/Gofod
Today, we enjoyed using paper mache to create the eight planets of the solar system. We can’t wait to paint them next week!
Spring play
Here are a few snaps from our Spring play, which our pupils wrote. It was based on George’s Marvellous Medicine with a hint of Matilda. The pupils created their own checklist of everything that needed to be completed in order to answer the question ‘What will it take to be ready for a theatrical performance?’
We think they were definitely ready, we hope you did too…!
Discoveries!
The Mantle of the Expert spark for this term is discoveries. The children have discovered a long lost tomb on the side of a mountain in the Valley of the kings. The discovery is reported to the British Museum who dispatch a team of archaeologists to investigate the discovery, open the tomb and catalogue what’s inside. The children will now take on the role of the archaeologists to find out about Ancient Egypt and the treasures discovered. Here are some of the things that they would like to find out about this term in order to help them achieve this…
Outdoor Learning
This week we have been using a range of resources to make our very own bubble wands. We found that we needed to blow carefully and be close to the string to make sure we made bubbles.
Forest School
Well done to all Year 2 children that took part in our Forest School session today. It was a challenge finding dry fuel in our fire but the children were an absolute credit and worked well as a team to ensure we enjoyed a healthy treat at the end of the session.
