We will see you on Monday 20th April after a well-deserved and hopefully sunny Easter break :)

We discussed alliteration, onomatopoeia, rhyme and repetition. Their poems were fantastic! They represented the emotions and events in the story. Today we practised and performed our poems, focusing on using expression and a clear voice. Well done everyone!

We thought about what the division symbol means and about what division sentences represent – sharing equally! Then, we had a go at working out some division questions with our talk partners using counters and our steps! Grouping is much easier than we thought and we had lots of fun.

The shiny wreckage, scattered “space rocks,” and strange footprints sparked instant excitement and curiosity. The children became space explorers, investigating clues and writing brilliant questions about its alien pilot. Who was on board? Where had it come from? Why did it land here? Throughout the term, the crash will inspire creative writing, teamwork, and imaginative role-play. What an unforgettable way to launch our new English text — learning truly blasted off in Year 2!

We loved welcoming the author and illustrator Rachel Tilda Wolf into RAPS to share her book Bear’s Perfect Dance! She talked to us about her writing and her beautiful illustrations, and how stories can develop over time. It was such an inspiring visit that got everyone excited about books and writing, and we loved taking part in a draw-along session afterwards with her! Thank you, Rachel!

We have learnt about all the different food groups and what they help our bodies to do. We have also looked at the Eat Well Plate which shows us the different foods we should be eating and the proportions we should eat them in. Over the week the children will be using the eat well plates they have created to plan a healthy lunch box meal.

We have made catapults from lolly sticks and wooden spoons. We have also completed our Hour of Code where we learnt how to and then created our own app for a iPad. We created our own version of Flappy Birds; learning how to write basic code using blocks. This was a great opportunity for the children to demonstrate their creativity, collaboration, and resilience.

In the afternoon, we attended The School of Noise. We experimented with a theremin, played vegetables wired up to a soundboard, and saw what different sound vibrations do to salt. We had great fun learning how science and technology can be used in the music industry and wider world.

These will form part of a display in the art room.

In the afternoon, we tested our vehicles. We built a ramp using crates and a whiteboard to launch our cars from. We tested how far our vehicles travelled. We then made the ramp steeper and predicted how this might affect our cars' movement. We were surprised by some of the results.

We had great fun with mathematical problems. We also got to meet some other great teachers. With Miss Bullard the children explored making patterns with triangles, with Miss Hayzelden they used cubes to help them count and worked what happened when they added double or 4 times the number of cubes. Then with Mr Brun-Cialis the children used their methodical thinking to work out the problem of the chicken, fox and corn. While finally they added the amounts on dice with Ms McCurry.

In Team Brun-Cialis, we also wrote counting songs which we sang with backing from Mr Brun-Cialis and his mandolin.

For each of the activities, we had to show our creativity, collaboration, and resilience!

In year 2, we followed directions to build a vehicle. Thank you to all the adults who came in to help! We will continue to decorate our vehicles before testing them out on different surfaces later this week. 

We also investigated microbes with 'Glo-Germ.'  We had great fun using special equipment to locate the 'germs' on our hands and around the classrooms. We will all be washing our hands much more thoroughly now we have seen what is on them!

We know humans can look, talk, think and act in different ways and that our differences make us unique and special. Regardless of our appearance, beliefs, preferences, religion, financial situation, background etc, we are all important and should be celebrated. All living things have rights and we all have the responsibility to protect those rights, especially by protecting others’ bodies and feelings. After playing some games to show our differences and to generate conversations about diversity, we worked hard to create a class piece of art showing our personal responses to our learning! Take a look just outside our classroom doors at our lovely artwork!

We clarified what makes an ‘emergency’ and recapped the types of emergency responders (police, firefighters, paramedics, coastguard etc.), before exploring what dialling 999 actually means. We practised how to stay calm and ask for help and what important information to share, such as our name, where we might be, and what has happened. We also talked about what we could do if we were in an emergency but unable to call 999 – e.g. being lost. To build our confidence, we roleplayed dialling 999 and having a conversation with a responder in an emergency. Our challenge now is to learn our key personal information if there ever was an emergency.

Take a look at us in action! Best of all, we got to eat our work after and try some vegetables like lettuce, lemons and peppers! ​

Today was lots of fun - some of us made Christmas cards, some of us played Top Trumps and Uno! Some of us used our junk modelling to construct and some of us made some stunning stockings! Some of us practised our handwriting formations with shiny gel pens… and some of us decided to change our reading corner! Ask us what we got up to this morning!

Yesterday, we finished our narratives based on The Legend of Black Rock. The children then collaboratively edited these stories by correcting eachother's spellings and sentence structure. The children enjoyed being the teacher and marking work onto post-it notes. 

In the next few days, our published work will appear on display in the classroom. Ask your child to see their work!
