Class Five have been busy being scientists this morning. We have been thinking about the human life cycle – some of us even challenged ourselves to compare the human life cycle to other living things.

Great job Class Five,

This morning in our expedition session we were thinking about the difference between the things we need to survive and this things we might want but don’t actually need to survive. I was very impressed with the mature and sensible conversations.

Well done class five xx

I just wanted to share this photograph I took on Friday and forgot to share. We have planted some beans in our window greenhouse – we have been carefully observing them over the past week to see how they are changing and growing. It’s lovely to see the children leading their own learning and checking in on our experiment over the day without any input from the grown ups.

The future of science is safe with this budding group of scientists.

This week we have gone for the famous composer, John Williams. We have picked five songs for our play list – but we think as you look at home you will find hundreds more that we could have used!

Enjoy, Mrs Parsons xx

Today we had Dr Steph Teanby-Clark come into school. She explained her job to us and showed us some of the equipment and tools she uses. She also answered our questions about how we could be the healthiest version of ourselves. We were really impressed with the thoughtful questions and respectful listening from the children in class five.

We are looking forward to using what we have found out towards answering our guiding question.

Firstly, a huge thank you to all those parents who attended our year two parent sessions today. I hope we were able to give you an idea of what to expect over the coming weeks for you and your child. Also, how we can work together to give your children the best experience during their last two terms at Norton Infant School.

Please find below a copy of the slides used in our meeting. We will also send home a copy of the pack for those parents unable to attend.

If you have any questions or concerns going forward, please don’t hesitate to ask one of the year two team or drop me a message on ClassDojo.

Thank you for your support,

Mrs Parsons 😊
