The start of Summer term in Class 4C...

On Thursday 18th April we were very lucky to have a group of people from 'Get Cycling' come in to our school. They had many styles of cycles which we were given the opportunity to ride.
We had a fantastic afternoon but we had to brave hail stones and really heavy rain!

 

Monday 22nd April was the start of Science Week:

 

 

 

Lets see what's happening in 4C......

In maths we have been doing work on Weighing and we had great fun making salt dough!

 

 

On Monday 28th January as part of book week we had to bring our pyjamas into school, so that in the afternoon we could have 'Bedtime Stories'. This was great fun we even had drinks and biscuits!

 

 

In Science we are doing the topic 'Keeping Warm' and we have taken part in lots of differnet experiments measuring temperatures and finding out which materials are thermal insulators and are best for keeping hot drinks hotter for longer. We also made coats for mini snowmen to see how long the coat would stop the snowman from melting!

 

 

 

 



What's happening in 3P!

3P have been doing a project on teeth. We conducted an experiment to test which drink made teeth decay the most. We used egg shell as this is similar to the enamel on teeth. We left the eggs in different liquids for a week and checked daily the effect coke, orange juice, apple juice, lemonade, vinegar, water and milk had on the shells. At the end of the week we found out that liquids which contain acid rather than sugar were the worst for your teeth.

Soon we are going to be researching different animals. We will look at their teeth to determine whether they are a Omnivore, Carnivore or a Herbivore.

Day trip to Southend

On Tuesday 21st June Year 2 all went on a trip to Southend. When we went back to school the next day we had to send postcards as if we were sending them from Southend. Here are a couple of the postcards we wrote:


Dear Taylor
I'm having a great time at the Southend beach. We have had an ice cream and bought a souvinier to remember the time we had. We paddled in the sea and built sand castles. We got there by a car.

PIrates Day!

In Class 2C we had to all come to school dressed as pirates for 'Pirates Day'
We all dressed up and looked amazing!
In the afternoon we all went out onto the playing fields for a treasure hunt. We were all put into teams for this. I was inthe red team with my friends Charlie and Adea. It was really close but our team just managed to win the treasure hunt.
We had a fantastic day and would love to do this again!

Space

In Class 2C we have been learning  about  space. We made our own planets and we made them out of Paper mache.

We learnt that the sun is burning hot like a lather ball. 

If space men go to near to the sun they will burn into tiny pieces. 

The Earth is as smooth as a soft ball.

The solar  system is in a dark planet far far away.

In Space there is no graverty so even big giant rocks float.
We also found out that Neil Armstrong was the first man to travel to the moon.
There is lots of rubbish on the moon.

Year 2 Christmas Party

Yesrterday we had a lovely party in our classroom. We played games like pass the parcel, musical chairs and musical statues. We ate lots of party food – we really liked crisps and cakes!  We won prizes for the games and had a good time, and played lots of cheerful Xmas music and had a lovely afternoon.
