A Warning Tale

To start our Talk for Writing units off this term we are learning about warning tales. This week we have made a text map, which the children have helped with ideas for, to help us learn the text. We have been busy learning the warning tale about Eddie and Minty two adventurous polar bear cubs who do not listen to their mother’s warning and end up in trouble. We have also been thinking of questions to ask Minty and Eddie to help us find out more about the text.

Exploring Peace

Our RE unit of study in the Autumn term was considering the BIG QUESTION: What is the good news that Christians believe Jesus brings? As part of this we thought about the peace that Christians believe Jesus brings them. We all created pictures using a range of media: water colours, chalks, pastels, crayons of places that bring us peace.

Forest Schools fire

Whilst we were learning about the Great Fire of London we set up a fire in Forest Schools. Mrs Noden lit the fire in the fire pit and we added some materials to see how flammable they were; this linked to our science work about properties of materials and also our understanding of why buildings burnt so quickly during the Great Fire of London. We added a metal bolt, a piece of fabric, straw, glass pebbles and a stone. The children spoke about what it would have been like in London whilst the fire was burning.

The Great Fire of London

In Autumn term 2 we learnt about the Great Fire of London, we explored picture artefacts, learnt about the timeline of the fire, spoke about the causes and learnt about how things changed in London as a result of the fire. The children were involved in a number of hands on activities and enjoyed finding out about Samuel Pepy’s diary!

Our Class visit to Stafford High House

Back in November we went on a “Great Fire of London” visit to the High House in Stafford. We learnt a lot about the differences between life during the time of the Great Fire of London and modern life. The children in class 2 were able to experience through hands – on activities the causes of the Great fire, why it spread so quickly and what changed as a result of the fire.

How to catch a dragon

As the hook for our new English talk for writing unit we found a poster on our classroom door stating that a dragon had been spotted in Hodnet. We went out into the school grounds to be detectives and search for clues that the dragon had been in school; we found scratch marks, scorch marks and a dragons egg when we returned to the classroom! We logged our findings on see saw and then helped Miss Manton create a text map for an instruction text: How to trap a Dragon.
