Year 2: Information about the term ahead and learning from this week.

 Welcome to Summer 1! 


We have had a brilliant start of the half term. In English we have started to look at the story of the Dragon Machine. The children were looking at prepositions and where they could see dragon tails. 




In Science we have set up some observations over time to see how seeds grow. 

This morning the children listened to the Life Education workshop where they thought about what they are grateful for and how to keep mentally healthy. 





In Geography today we started to look at a new topic focussed on Kenya and our link school. And finally in music the children listened to a piece of music where the choir made noises using their bodies that sounded like rain. The children worked in groups to make up their own and perform it to the class. 





General reminders about this half term:

-We no longer have Forest Schools, instead the children will go swimming to 1610 on a Thursday pm with Mr Spracklen. This will start next week. Please return your letters telling us the children's swimming abilities. Also please remember to supply a swimming hat. Feel free to take your child's wellies home from the cloakroom. 

-Monday 28th at 9am I will be leading the Summer term parent information session and then straight after there will be a Maths workshop where your child will be working with you or a family member. 

-Thursday 8th May is VE day, there will be no swimming or Rocket club this day. More information will be sent about this day from Mr Spracklen. 

-Rocket club starts next week and will be on a Thursday after school. 

-PE will be on a Friday afternoon with coach Luca. Please can we have named PE kits in for then. 

I think that is all for now. If you have any questions about any of the above please do come and see me at the door in the mornings. 

Mrs Thorpe
