PE Days
Our Outdoor PE session is on a Monday. Please ensure that your child comes into school in their outdoor PE kit, including a blue or black tracksuit if cold. Your child can also bring gloves and a hat if the weather is cold.
Our Swimming Lessons are on a Wednesday (2W) and a Thursday (2B). As lessons in the outdoor pool can sometimes leave children feeling a little chilly, please make sure that your child brings a jumper to school on the day that they have swimming. Swimming kit should include a hat (marked clearly with their name on the outside), a swimsuit (one piece) or swimming trunks (not long shorts), a towel and flip flops or other plastic shoes used for walking backwards and forwards to the pool when feet are wet. Children may also like to bring goggles if they are used to using them for swimming.
Homework and Spellings
Spelling tests will be carried out in school on a Tuesday morning. New spellings will be sent home on a Wednesday.
The CGP homework books will also be sent home on a Wednesday. The books will alternate each week between Maths and English. A sheet will be sent home each week with details about which pages to complete.
Login details for Numbots and Times Table Rockstars (TTRS) are stuck in the children's reading records. Children are asked to spend 15 minutes a week on the 'Garage' section of TTRS.
Science in 2B
In Science we have been looking at materials - and the children started the unit by making Material Monsters!
They were given a huge table full of mixed objects and materials and then had to select items that were made from the material that their monster was to be made from. They then had to work as a group to make the objects that they had found into a monster!
The children were very proud of their monsters! Can you tell what each one was made from?
DT in 2W
The children took on an exciting project to build their own models of The Monument using junk modelling materials, paper mâché and paint. They explored different ways to create strong structures and carefully thought about shape, balance and detail in their designs. The children had great fun throughout the process and showed brilliant creativity, teamwork and perseverance as they brought their ideas to life. The finished models are incredibly impressive and we are very proud of the effort and determination everyone demonstrated. This project sparked some children's interests so much that they even visited The Monument in London!
We hope you enjoy a few photos of the completed models.
