In English we were able to follow a set of instructions for a range of activities. This will help us to write our own instructions tomorrow.
We went around the school hunting for different objects. We named the materials they were made from and thought about why the object was made from that material.
In Art last week we created some beautiful dot paintings inspired by Aboriginal work which we observed. ![]()
In History we are learning about the invention of the telephone. We thought about the forms of communication people used prior to the invention of the telephone. One particularly interesting form of communication was the Aboriginal message stick. We made our own message stick to deliver a message to a person who was special to us.
This afternoon we had to bring in the punctuation police! Miss Thurlow had written a story over the weekend and all of her full stops were stolen!
Luckily, we have been learning about where we need a full stop (at the end of an independent clause). We found out that full sentences always have a noun and verb in them. We were able to add "Frankie full stops" to the sentences. We had to read the sentences carefully to make sure they were full sentences. Then Miss Thurlow took our photographs. The children worked really hard this afternoon and were very confident at finding where the full stops were needed. Great work Year 2! Let's hope there are no punctuation thieves when we complete writing in our posh new English books! :) This term we have been learning about China. Yesterday we explored Chinese culture and tasted some Chinese food!
Yesterday was our final forest schools session. We started our session by relaxing by Mother oak. We thought about what we could see, feel, smell and hear. We then went into the forest and learnt how to make a camp fire. We had to collect a variety of sticks to help Willow Watts build the fire. When the fire was ready we were able to toast marshmallows. We also had all of our favourite activities out: den building, clay and stick men.
We had an amazing last session and will miss the ladies at forest schools. Thank you for their amazing help. We can't wait to plant our own present from mother oak at school. In Science we are getting ready to begin our cooking. We tasted different foods to explore tastes. Some were very nice and others were not!
We had a fab day at Ipswich girls school. We started our session with a trust game. We got into pairs, one of our us were blind folded and the other child took us to a tree. We had to feel it then guess which tree we were taken to. When we went into the forest we made stick men and our own dens.
