We have been learning to make observational drawings of natural objects. We started by focusing on the different variations of lines.

Our DT topic this half term was to make our own fruit salad. We had a variety of fruits to choose from. We learnt the different chopping techniques.

This half term we have been learning about the different senses that we have and which body parts they relate to. We got to use our senses by touching, hearing, seeing, smelling and tasting things in the classroom!
Class 2 have enjoyed starting their first maths topic of the year covering place value. We have looked at different numbers and what they are made up of. We have also done lots of counting forwards and backwards!
Reception, Year One and Two enjoyed a wonderful day at the Kepplewray activity centre. They spent time canoeing, tree climbing, pond dipping, building fires and working as a team to problem-solve!
Class 2 have been exploring the work of Paul Klee and Pablo Picasso. We have used a range of different types of media to create ‘bonkers’ portraits, with eyes, noses, ears and mouths in lots of unusual places, sometimes combining different viewpoints on one image. We were also really inspired by the irregular shapes and the strong use of bold colours in the work of these artists to make our striking pictures.
With Bob Sutcliffe taking our ideas even further, we also made some 3D collage creations to make the features of our faces really stand out. We have used cardboard, pencils, wax pastels and paint!
Class 2 are delighted to have been donated this wonderful mud kitchen!
They have enjoyed spending time playing and creating leaf soup and washing up with many more great learning opportunities to come!
A huge thank you to everyone that was involved in creating this fantastic mud kitchen for our outdoor area!
If you have any spare herb plants at home that you would be willing to donate so the children can use them when they are in their outdoor learning area please get in touch.
Class 2 have started their RE learning off with looking at bibles and reading our favourite stories out of the bible! We found this very interesting and loved reading to a friend.
Class 2 have enjoyed learning how to times and divide different numbers over the past few weeks!
