Good afternoon everyone,
I have some lovely photos to share with you this week.
We headed out into the woodland as a whole class and used Katie Morag once again as a stimulus for learning. Mrs. Pearce read the story Little Izzy and the children learned how Izzy was set a challenge to find clues around the Isle of Struay.
In the end, she made it to a lighthouse for a picnic and we mimicked this in the wild area by making our very own lighthouses and having a mini picnic!
Have a great weekend,
Mr. H.

Hi all and happy Friday,
We have had another lovely week here in class two.
We are continuing to learn about Katie Morag and the class have authored amazing settings to start off their very own Katie Morag story. We even tried to make it joined up writing - how grown up!
In maths, we have worked with fractions as well as doubles, halves and even brushed up on our addition and subtraction skills.
In Geography, we have recapped on the UK and the four capital cities.
And here are some more lovely photos from the outdoor learning sessions.

Hello everyone,
Another week has passed here in year two, and yet more learning has taken place. In keeping with our Scotland topic we have been using the Katie Morag Isle of Struay maps to help us brush up on our compass directions for geography and prepositions in English.
We have loved sharing various different Katie Morag stories and are now trying to follow the pattern of Mairi Hedderwick's books ourselves using our imaginations and own ideas.
We have been using cubes in maths to help us work with fractions of shapes and amounts and I can say that the class have worked so hard this week!
We have made soundtracks on purplemash to accompany our favourite films/games/ cartoons too.
Outdoor Learning
This week our story was ‘No Place Like Home’ which tells the story of a mole who is looking for somewhere new to live. We think he might have been to visit us at Netherthong as we spotted lots of mole hills on out school field! We played some very energetic team games to keep us warm and used our fine motor skills to tie our ‘wiggly worms’.

Good afternoon!
We've gone Katie Morag mad in year two!
We've enjoy Katie Morag and the Two Grandmothers, Katie Delivers the Mail and Katie Morag and Tiresome Ted.

It has all been about Katie Morag this week!
The class have loved getting to know the Isle of Struay and getting in involved in the stories.
So far, we have posted a letter to Granny Island thanking her for helping us sort out the mess we made with the mail and we have also practiced writing in a diary.
The class have loved getting the paints out to recreate some of their favourite illustrations from the books and outdoor learning this week involved working as a team to make their own mock Isles of Struay! I heard that there was also hot chocolate!
Here are a few photos:
