We’ve had a lot of fun during our learning this week. From becoming newspaper reporters to gymnastics superstars – Year 3 really have got talent! The children were extremely reflective during Adoration on Wednesday and thoroughly enjoyed their Spanish lesson about Advent with Michael. They have also made thoughtful cards for Francesca and have been […]
This week, we continued our writing focus on Wesley in Westlandia and wrote up our diary entries. The children worked hard in ensuring that their editing skills were put to great use – they have created another wonderful piece of writing. Well done! On Monday we joined with Year 3’s and attended the Gymnastics Display […]
This week was National Tree so we looked closely at the trees in our playground. We drew the trees and the leaves. Then we did some bark rubbings. We identified that one was a Willow tree and one was a silver maple tree. In Maths we have been counting backwards and subtracting. We have been […]
It has been all about balancing and rebalancing this week in Year 2. In maths, the children have been looking at rebalancing number sentences. The children identified the number in their calculation that was near a friendly number (multiple of ten) and used a beadstring to rebalance their calculation. How would you rebalance the following […]
This week the children have continued to use their knowledge of their timetables, looked more into the rules of divisibility and have moved onto factors and multiples! They especially enjoyed completing the NRich game of Factors and Multiples online with their partner so it was lovely to hear the key vocabulary being used during their […]

Our Weslandia learning came to an end this week with the writing of our newspaper reports. The children recounted the story well in a journalist style and used new grammar aspects. I have added the challenge of using dialogue in their spellings this week to practise the punctuation required. In maths we have focused on […]
This week was our last week on the story Westlandia. The children have written a recount on a scene from the story. Their writing is wonderful showing their great understanding of the story. In Gymnastics we made up different sequences with our partners and showed them to the class. In Maths we have been learning […]
