Just a quick note to say!

Good afternoon! We’ve had a busy day in 2B today, we’ve had not one but two English lessons! We have been enjoying reading a book by Kamala Harris called “Superheroes are Everywhere” and we’ve been writing sentences about why we might consider ourselves as heroes.

This morning in crew, we have been given the special task of inventing a name for a new street currently being built in the area! I personally think that Crew Barker came up with the best name, but we shall have to wait and see which name was voted the winner. The names with the most votes will be put forward to the council. Afterwards for “We Care Wednesday” we looked into stereotypes. We decided that football was for girls and boys and that girls play video games too.

I would like to say I’m really proud of how kind 2B are. The children are very quick to support each other when they spot someone is sad! I’ve noticed it is easy for the children to achieve 3’s and 4’s in their be kind HOWLs everyday! Shutout to Alina who has amazing manners and is always very polite to staff and other children.

I apologise I wasn’t there to see the children out this afternoon. Please can I ask all adults to check their child’s school hoody/cardigan/jumper to see if they’ve taken home the right one and also if they haven’t already, please put their name on the labels. There was a pile of cardigans/jumpers on my chair before I left today so tomorrows mission is to track down who they belong to! Thank-you to everyone supporting their children with their reading at home I’ve been very impressed. Unfortunately there’s a lot to pack into a school day and our support staff have been absolute heroes this term, but Miss Millington did have to take my crew this afternoon, so I apologise if books have not been sorted/rectified – please be patient with us on this! (On the other hand she might’ve been able to sort books so ignore me if so!)

Working Hard in 1M

Shout out to Aland, Casey, Anna, Bobby and Neriya for their fantastic work ethic and kindness yesterday.

Children in 1M have been learning number bonds within 10 and partitioning them in various ways. They have also been creating and engineering their own hero houses – listing what special features they have. On Monday we had our first proper PE session working on the fundamental movements through team games!

We are Geographers

Today we have been using maps to find out where in the world the Viking homelands were and where they settled in the UK. Can you remember the 3 parts of Scandinavia that they originated from?
