24.2.23 Week in Review

Posted: Feb 24, 2023 by: Greg Hobson (GHobson) on: Class 2

Hi all and good afternoon! 

Welcome back to a new half-term! Spring is just around the corner, the days are beginning to lengthen and temperatures are on the rise! 

We have had a brilliant week launching our Fire! Fire! topic. We have been learning about the Great Fire of London in both English and history and the children have put together some lovely descriptive text. In PE this week, we have started off some cricket skills and sports acrobatics too. During out maths lessons, we have been looking at the relationship between multiplication and division and noticing some patterns that can be used to solve problems. The class were brilliant at solving some word problems too. 

As we are learning all about the Great Fire of London this term, we read a fantastic new book about a flea called Vlad who travelled around London in 1666 between the furry ears of a friendly rat! We thought about the differences between the buildings that are in London now and the ones that burned down in the fire. We had a go at building using wattle and daub (mud, straw and wood). It was a very messy job but lots of fun and we could see how using these building materials worked.
