Listening Walk

Today in 2L , the children made themselves an extra pair of listening ears and we went on a listening walk to find out what we could hear in school. We crept around and heard all sorts of sounds including cutlery clattering in the hall, birds tweeting outside, doors banging and the jazzy music coming from Y6. The children were really quiet and were shocked by what they could hear when they really tried to concentrate.

We are going to turn these noises into expanded noun phrases and write our very our sound poem. We’ll make sure to blog our final work.

Back to the Past!

The children really enjoyed their first day back at school and looked amazing in their outfits from the past. We used this to explore vocabulary about the past, present and future and compared sources of information to spot similarities and differences.

We also used our expert visitor who used a drone to show us parts of Doncaster as seen from the air! It was really exciting to get a new perspective on our community.

We are all ready to get stuck into our new expedition!

Plover’s Past Hook Day

It was marvellous seeing the children dressed in such smart and old fashioned clothes. We enjoyed a crew challenge. Geoff the expert showed us some aerial view photos of Intake and Doncaster. We learnt about some history of Doncaster and explored a time capsule and artefacts found within Plover! #LovePlover

Dress Up Day!

Hi Everyone,

Just a reminder that Monday is our Dress Up Day! If possible, could children come to school in old fashioned clothing to support our learning of our new expedition.

We look forward to seeing you all in your outfits!

Year 1/2 Faith Day

As part of our Faith Day, Year 1 and 2 learned about the story of Moses. We then completed a Kahoot quiz to show what we have learned. We then learned about the story of Abraham and Isaac, then we completed freeze frames for the key parts of the story.
