19.04.24 A week in review

Posted: Apr 19, 2024 by: Greg Hobson (GHobson) on: Class 2

Good afternoon everyone,

Here in class two, we have had a brilliant week and a highlight of it has to be starting the story 'The Mousehole Cat'. The class started by looking at one of the first illustrations of the book and this features a view out Mousehole, Cornwall. The children came up with as many words as possible using that image and the words were a mixture of nouns and adjectives. From this, the class started writing a description of the image but they had to try to start each of their sentences with a different letter of the alphabet! Their descriptions were brilliant and very imaginative. 

In PE, the class were fantastic when Thongsbridge Tennis Club coach, Matt, came into school to lead our tennis lessons. The group built on their prior learning to return balls using racquets with accuracy and appropriate power. 

History this week, consisted of reviewing old photos of seaside holidays and looking at what has changed and what has stayed the same. The class noticed that some things like paddling and playing with buckets and spades are timeless whilst wearing old fashioned swimming costumes and playing giant dominoes is less common.

Have a good weekend everyone.

Thanks,

Mr. H.
