Instructions ✍️ 🐝

Today we introduced our class stimulus text: Omar, The Bees and Me! It is a wonderful stories about two friends who are on a mission to help the bees. We talked about what we had created for our eco garden and what we had done to help the bees. We then thought it would be a lovely idea to share with more people on how they could make Bee Hotels too! We introduced our new model text and we were very lucky today, as Mrs. Swann taught us the BSL signs to accompany it! Thank you Mrs. Swann for your help! 🐝

Following Instructions

This week the children in Year 2 have begun their new unit on instructions. Today they have been busy following instructions to create something special ready for this weekend. They worked in pairs and small groups to help each other succeed. I’m sure when the children bring their special project home, you’ll see how hard they have worked!

Sorry, there are no sneak previews, you’ll have to wait and see!

Instructions: Bee Hotel 🐝

As part of our new writing unit, we are learning to write instructions. Today, we practiced following some instructions on how to make a bee hotel. First we collected some sticks to create the middle section. Then we made our bed hotels in mini crews before heading outside to put them in our eco-garden.

Thank you once again for your support.

Reading for Pleasure

In Crew this morning, children enjoyed sharing one of their favourite books while having a biscuit. We discussed why reading is so important and why we should read as often as we can. It was great to see children reading for pleasure and lovely to find out their reasons for choosing their book.

Pond Habitats

This week the children have been enjoying finding out about the lifecycle of a frog and about the habitat they live in. The children designed some brilliant pond habitats that included food sources, protection from predators, shelter for frogspawn and tadpoles and a source of fresh water.

Here are some of the children’s ideas.

Reading Plus

This week some children in Year 1 and 2 have been enjoying trying our new reading platform, ‘Reading Plus.’ The children have gone home covered in stickers for their hard work and they have loved improving their comprehension and vocabulary. Keep it up everyone!
