11.11.22 Week in Review
Posted: Nov 11, 2022 by: Greg Hobson (GHobson) on: Class 2
Good afternoon everyone,
This week we have got stuck into our new topic 'Journeys' and explore what the climate is like in the Arctic circle! We discovered that during summer, plants do grow and grasslands appear but during the deepest depths of winter the sun doesn't rise and temperatures average -34°C!
In English, we have been enjoying a week packed with grammar and are now experts on nouns, verbs, adverbs and adjectives!
In maths, we have been using 100 squares to take shortcuts when adding and subtracting! We now know some nifty tricks for adding and subtracting 11, 12, 13, 21, 22,23 and other numbers like them!
In our wild area we read a great book called Pumpkin Soup which is all about a group of friends working on a project together and this was definitely the theme of the day for class 2. We made pumpkin soup together in our mud kitchen, worked in pairs to tie knots to make broomsticks and thought of ways to use our leftover pumpkins to make bird feeders.
