A fffff fantastic phonics day

We have had a fantastic phonics day in F2BP. We have played lots of games, practiced reading and writing and have had lots of fun.

We also made ourselves into words. Can you guess the words that we made?

A big well done to Charlotte and Abbie who were our Pride of Plover winners today. They have been superstars in their learning and we are so proud of them. They are working hard, being kind and getting smart.

Family learning in Crew Brown

On the final day of Hook Week, we spent some of the morning in our crews designing a Crew robot. We combined our ideas to design a robot that makes healthy snacks/drinks and encourages different physical activities to keep people fit and healthy. I would like to say a huge shoutout to all of the adults who came in to support the children with creating the robot in our family learning event in the afternoon. Everyone worked well together to make our amazing design a reality and should be super proud of the end product.

Hand Washing

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.

All about animals in 3B

Weā€™ve had some fun, active lessons learning all about animals in Hook Week. First, we played an active food chain game to learn about the flow of energy within a food chain between grass, deer and wolves. Then, we worked in teams to classify different types in animals as either a mammal, reptile, amphibian, insect, fish, bird or arachnid based on their different features. Everyone took part and had lots of fun while learning.

Crew Graves Family Learning

A big thank you to the parents and carers that joined us for our Family Learning event on Friday. We made a crew robot, created tin can robots and completed robot puzzles.

Everybody got really stuck in and it was great to see the teamwork as our crew robot grew!

Shapes

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?

Being creative

Do you know where your eyes are on your head? This was one of the questions that we answered today. Some of the children thought that they were at the very top but when we used our hands to slide down our faces we realised that they were in the middle.

The children created pictures of faces using different materials and media. Have a look at our creations.

Back to school!

Itā€™s been lovely to see everyone back in F1 this week, and how nicely our early starters have slotted in, making lots of new friends. Weā€™ve had lots of fun exploring the snow, role play and working on our fine/gross motor skills.
