This week it is composer – John Williams!
Mindful Monday
We started our morning with a rose and a thorn check in followed by a talk about why World Religion Day is important. We decided to test our knowledge with a game of dominoes made up with lots of religious symbols. Our check out was what skills we needed to be successful this morning at our game.
It was a lovely crew start to our week,

Family Learning
We were joined by lots of grown ups this afternoon. We were really busy planting cress heads to observe in our classroom. – I wonder who will have the craziest cress hair! We also made a pop bottle green house to take home and watch grow. We filled in the first part of our seed diaries too. We can’t wait to see the photographs of what you have grown on ClassDojo!
Thank you to everyone who came and joined us.

Studying Spinach!
We have tasted it, looked at it and researched it. This afternoon we have been drawing it, critiquing our art and redrafting ready to transfer our final draft onto shrinky dink!
The concentration and resilience shown in class five has been incredible!

Y2 SLCs Prep
In Crew this morning Y2 have all been preparing for our SLCs next week. We got our Autumn Term expedition books out and picked our favourite piece of work as well as one we really grappled with. We can’t wait to share our “Rags to Riches” learning with you all next week.
Spinach
We have been busy today thinking about our first vegetable. We have researched spinach and added the information we have found to our graffiti wall. We looked at a model text and identified the important features and we all showed courage and tried some spinach! We are looking forward to getting our next drafts of our art work onto shrinky dink paper and add it to our final products!

Fruit Tasting
We have been showing courage this morning tasting lots of different fruits that we have read about in Handa’s Surprise. We thought carefully and used our anchor chart to describe the different fruits.
We pulled some funny faces trying some of the sour fruits!

Shrinky Dink
What a fun afternoon in class five! We spent the afternoon exploring and playing with shrinky dink paper. We worked hard to figure out how it works (and how it doesn’t!). We are really looking forward to seeing how it will help us with our final product.
We created some great pieces already – take a look.

Hook Week – Clue One
We kicked off our hook week recapping our knowledge of the parts of the human body. We decided our expedition must have something to do with the body and our senses …
