We are historians

In 2L we are enjoying our new History Case Study. Today the children found out all about a significant person in our history, Queen Elizabeth II. We learned about her life and then put important events into chronological order on a timeline.

We learned lots of facts about her. Did you know her favourite castle was Balmoral Castle in Scotland? Oliver thought it would be very peaceful there away from the crowds in London.

Check out our timelines.

We are Historians!

2P have been exploring more about the Kings and Queens throughout History. We discussed why some of them have lived in Castles and then turned our focus to Queen Elizabeth II. We built our background knowledge about key events in her life and then created our own timelines to put them in chronological order.

Well done boys, you make a great team. I wonder what facts you can remember?

This week we have been learning about how different items were rationed during WW2. We have looked at the cause and impact of rationing and why it was needed. We also did some problem solving on how we would spend our coupons on items of clothing during that time.

Old, Special Bear

In expedition today we were historians and looked at a very old special bear. The children worked collaboratively to make a jigsaw of Mrs Bubbā€™s old bear. We discussed what the curiosity box bear means to Mr Meadeā€™s dad and how he has looked after it for 65 years. The children said how they knew it was old by the faded colour, the fur and how it was really floppy. The children then drew their families and special bears they have at home. #LovePlover

Year 3 have worked hard to order the timeline of events that led to the rise of Adolf Hitlerā€™s power and the outbreak of World War Two. Well done everyone. You showed great use of teamwork to complete this learning challenge.

Meet F2BP crew bear “Sunshine”

Welcome our crew bearā€¦ Sunshine!
In expedition we learnt about the history of how teddy bears are made. We then discussed the instructions on how to make a bear. As a crew we worked together to build a bear. We described how our new bear felt and shared kindness messages for our crew bear. In crew, we showed democracy to vote for the name of our crew bear from the childrenā€™s suggestions. There were lots of names that the children came up with but the winning name was Sunshine.

The children are very excited to look after Sunshine.

Parts of a castle

Last week in Year 2 we were finding out about how castles have changed over time and learning about the different parts of a castle. The children worked in pairs to label the castle and we discussed how castles are different to our own houses.

1CR last week

Last week, 1CR made a great start to the last few weeks. We have been impressed with their maths work and their beautiful handwriting. We have been working hard to learn about castles and start to understand the different parts of the castles.
