15th January 2025Rebecca Bubb

Today, we had an expert footballer come to visit. He told us about his job and taught us some skills. We wonder if anyone in our class will be a professional footballer when they are grown-ups? A few of us managed to score a goal so watch this space!

We used our head, hand and heart in PE today to help us – think about balancing sequences, balance with control and have the confidence to make shapes using their bodies. We linked it to our expedition and the children came up with movements linked to a baby, toddl

Hand Washing

14th January 2025Amy Woods

This week as part of our expedition, we are looking at what we can do to keep our bodies healthy. Today we focussed on learning to wash our hands properly, to stop germs getting into our tummies. We used glitter to represent the germs and noticed that it we just put our hands in the water, the glitter did not come off. We then used soap to wash our hands and the glitter all came off. We spoke about how you need to wash between your fingers and your wrists too.

How do we look after our bodies?

13th January 2025Rebecca Bubb

In F2BP, we drew around Charlotteā€™s body. We talked about ways we look after different parts of our body. Mrs Bubb was so impressed with all the things we already do to keep our bodies healthy. Watch out for more learning in case study 1, where we will find out what happens to our bodies as we grow.

Iron Man Workshop

13th January 2025Mrs Graves

On Tuesday, we were thrilled to have Phil Sheppard from the National Literacy Trust and Doncaster Stories deliver a workshop about the Iron Man, to support the reading we have been doing.

Phil guided us through how to draw the Iron Man, using some of the techniques book illustrator Chris Mould used when illustrating the book, the Iron Man.

We were very proud of the result!

We are looking forward to working with Phil again on World Book Day.

Shapes

12th January 2025Mrs Lewis

In Year 2 this week we have been learning about the properties of 2D and 3D shapes. We have been using the words sides and vertices when we have been describing shapes and we also practiced making and drawing 2D shapes using a Geoboard.

Can you name the shapes we made?

Bushtucker trial!

12th January 2025Mr Pickering

As part of our hook week, 2P tried a variety of different fruits and vegetables. We described if the food was sour, sweet, bitter or strong. We tried some food that we hadn’t tried before and it certainly made us pull some strange faces!
