8.7.22 Week in Review
Posted: Jul 8, 2022 by: Greg Hobson (GHobson) on: Class 2
We have had transition day this week, and I just want to pass on a message from Miss Watkins in year three. She said that the class were lovely and is excited to have you all next year! Well done class two!
In other news, We have focussed on time in maths and have really challenged ourselves to use five minute increments when telling the time!
In English, the class have loved looking at Australian author Shaun Tan's book Eric! Eric is an interesting character to say the least and has some hidden talents! It has inspired the class to write amazing descriptions and also put together some lovely pencil sketches!
During music, the class were amazing at creating graphic scores to match music they were listening to. I was blown away by the creativity on show and how everyone had their own way of portraying what they had heard!
In outdoor learning, our book this week was Caterpillar Butterfly by Vivian French. We learned a lot about different sorts of caterpillars, what they like to eat, how they keep safe from predators and how they can shed their skins several times before they transform into butterflies. We picked strawberries and foraged for cherries in the woods to make butterfly feeding stations and thought about the symmetrical patterns on butterflies’ wings. We created our own symmetrical wings using natural materials on the brick butterfly that we have uncovered in our wild area.
Thanks everyone!
Mr. H.
