Good afternoon everyone,
The headline this week has been the weather. The class have been fantastic and not made a fuss about our indoor playtimes.
We have started off our year by writing recounts about our Christmas holidays. The children have loved talking, drawing and writing about what they have been up to. In maths, we have been creating block graphs, pictograms and recapping on some 3D shape knowledge. During our music session, we had a go at learning a song in the genre and style of rap and the children were great at performing it with some actions. During guided reading and geography, we have started our Scotland topic and looked at the world continents and oceans as well as the song Auld Lang Syne by Robert Burns.
Thanks everyone, have a good weekend.

Good afternoon everyone,
This week in class two, it has been filled with fun and excitement about the coming festivities. As the advent calendar ticks closer to Christmas Eve, the anticipation can almost be tasted!
In English this week, we have looked at a short film about Mog's Christmas Calamity by Judith Kerr. The class made amazing predictions about what was coming up in the story and loved watching the short clip. They also produced a lovely description of Mog herself!
During maths, the class have been using their addition and subtraction knowledge to work out clues to Christmas riddles and colour-by-number puzzles.
We had our lovely performance and the class were absolutely amazing! In other news, we have been working on our sewing skills as part of our design technology curriculum and the class put together their own glove puppets.We have enjoyed our class Christmas party too.
Thanks and have a good break over Christmas.

Good afternoon all,
Another week has passed and we are getting very close to Christmas now. During our guided reading sessions, the class have read the story 'Mog's Christmas Calamity'. This is a great Christmas book with a lovely message about community and being caring. It was a pleasure to listen to them reading it aloud.
We have had a very sucessful dress rehearsal today and the class were amazing. They have done themselves proud and I can't wait for them to perform to you all next week.
Thanks everyone, have a good weekend!

Good afternoon,
First off, the class have been working hard on learning lines and songs and remembering little bits of stage direction for our upcoming Christmas show. Well done everyone! Keep up the good work.
Today, we had the brilliant M&M productions in school to deliver the Christmas pantomime. They performed Jack and the Beanstalk and the whole school absolutely loved it.
It was lovely to see lots of you in school yesterday for Family Sharing and I know the children loved showing you their workbooks and talking to you all about what they have been doing.
During maths, the class have been learning all about time. They have looked at seconds, minutes and hours and have been AMAZING at telling the time using o'clock and half past times. Today, we had a go at comparing analogue and digital clocks to spot how times are displayed on different devices.
English has been a continuation from last week's Journey work. The class have been using adverbs and time phrases to write creatively and with a narrative structure. Their stories are really coming on!
Thanks everyone, have a good weekend!

We have started practising our Christmas show songs and the class really focused on projecting their voices.
During maths this week, the class have been using different diagrams to sort data. We have had a look at Venn and Carroll diagrams and then finished off the week with a review of 2D shapes and their properties.
In music, the class had a go at perform a group piece of music based on an animal of their choice. This was inspired by the 'Carnival of the Animals' that we have been listening to.
English learning has been based around 'The Journey' and the class have been brilliant writers using adjectives and varied sentence types to entertain.
Thanks all,
Have a good weekend.
Mr. H.
