Design & Technology Project

Y2K thought of types of vehicles they might make and then learned about the parts of vehicles to help them with their own designs. 

They had to consider what materials could be used to make moving wheels. Then plan, make and evaluate their designs.

Literacy - Poetry

First Y2K thought of lots of adjectives related to Valentines Day. Next these were used to create Acrostic Poems.

Data Handling

Y2K began a new Numeracy topic today. We collected information from the class to create a tally chart and a pictogram. Tomorrow the children will create their own charts and label them.

We are learning to organise information using tally charts, pictograms and bar charts. 

Chinese New Year

Here Y2K are making decorated paper lanterns after watching the Chinese New Year celebrations.

They learned about some of the associated customs and the story of the Chinese lunar year characters.

ICT

During Literacy Y2K wrote a recount about their sports day fun, the medals and certificates that they had won. 

We then went to the ICT suite to create a Sports Day News page. 

The writers had to include features of a report including a headline, illustrations and suitable punctuation.

Welcome back to term 2

Here are some of the pictures of our fabulous Christmas Production.

Welcome back

Dear Parents and students,

We hope you have all had a relaxing and fun holiday. We would like to thank you for all your kind words and presents at the end of last term and we hope that everybody is ready for the exciting term ahead! There are trips, a sports day and many events to look forward to, as well as the usual day to day activities.

Please be advised that this half of term the children will be doing Gymnastics during their swimming lessons so there will be no need to bring swimming kits in until after the half term.

Many thanks,
