Sports day fun

Class 2 had a great afternoon taking part in our annual school sports day. They were great team members and supportive of each other and showed excellent sportsmanship.

Chester Zoo visit

We had a wonderful day on Wednesday at the zoo, we saw lots of different animals; elephants (we were surprised they were covered with hair), meercats, lots and lots of flamingos (we even saw one sitting on an egg), monkeys, bears, anteaters, giraffes, zebras and much more. We will update with more photos next week.

The features of a church

We learnt about the features of a Christian Church and did some activities to help us recall them: matching pairs, drawing churches, word searches.

Visit to St Lukes Church Hodnet

As part of our RE unit this term we visited Hodnet Church and explored the features of an Anglican Church, we compared these to the features of a Methodist Church and a Baptist Church.

Plant identification in Forest Schools

We investigated where there were more plants growing – on the field in the open or under the shade of the trees. Each pair of children threw a hoop and made a tally chart of the flowers that were growing in each area. Then we used tree identification charts to name trees in our forest schools space. Children drew the leaves and then made bark rubbings.

More time telling

We have created our own clocks and used them to tell the time past the hour in minutes and then in Friday’s maths session to the hour. We made times on the clocks and then asked our partner to write them down on a white board.

Learning to tell the time

Our maths learning this week is about time. We started off by making number lines on post it notes, first counting in ones from 0-12 and ordering and then counting in 5s from 0 to 60. We then spaced these out around a circle and made sure that we put the 0 underneath the 60 and the 12. We learnt about counting in fives around the clock to help us tell the minutes and then using the shorter hand to tell the hour time.
