Learning Reflection Friday 30th Jan 2026
|
In Drawing Club we have been reading Nesting by Henry Cole. The story is about a nest of robins. We created some actions to help us learn our new words of the week - fledgling, predator, prey, defenceless and vulnerable. Perhaps we can teach you at home! In Maths we have continued to learn our two times table. Year 2 have carried on learning about money. Year 1 have been comparing numbers - using less than or greater than. In History, we created drawings of the Great Fire of London and put them in a sequence to better understand the order of events. In Forest School, me made nests using clay and natural materials. Some of us decided to use the clay to make faces on the tree trunks - they had some great names! |

This week in English, Year 2 have been reading ‘Vlad and the Great Fire of London’. We have been writing a diary entry in the first person. In Maths, Year 2 have been learning about money. We enjoyed making coin rubbings. We also started to learn our two times tables using a counting stick and a song. In Drawing Club, all year groups have enjoyed drawing and writing about Owl Babies. We made our own owls and nests from a variety of materials. In Forest School, we completed the Schools Big Birdwatch for the RSPB. In Art we were looking closely at feathers and sketching them. In History, we have been comparing objects from the past and objects in the present day. In PE, we have been doing gymnastics. We enjoyed learning some new shapes and put these into a sequence to perform to our friends. On Thursday, the library van came to visit and we enjoyed reading and listening to stories. In Science, we have been learning about our teeth. In Music, we composed a song about our own Superhero, exploring pitch by creating high and low notes on the glockenspiel. |
