Beautiful art.

2P have used our work on Dennis Wojtkiewicz to inspire us to produce watercolour paintings of different fruit cross sections. We worked extremely carefully and used different techniques and brushstrokes to create different effects. We did brilliantly!

NumBots

2P have had another busy week with learning on NumBots. We had so many certificates to share this week to celebrate our achievements. We even had someone in the top 3 of all four leaderboards this week! Brilliant work!

Flipping good fun!

2P have been using our work on instructions to create and make a pancake batter. This also linked to our expedition as we explored the processes of food preparation. We also looked at the religious and historical background to why we celebrate Shrove Tuesday and how it is celebrated in different ways around the world. We chose different toppings and then ate them all up. Delicious!

Pride of Plover

A bumper edition to include our winners from before half term as well as last week. It was great to see Henry and Flynn getting the award for their renewed attention and determination to their learning and Yuvaan and Zehra for trying so hard with their learning.

Last week we heard how well Bella listens so well to critique and uses this to keep challenging herself, how Oliver had been showing kindness, Riley had made such brilliant progress in maths and how Trishan has been trying so hard in his learning.

We are proud of you all!
