Year Two have been busy sharing memories from over the past year to add to their time capsule. We have buried it and plan to open it again when we reach year six – we wonder how much the world will have changed by then?

Zoos – For or Against?
This week in English and Expedition we have been thinking about whether we are for or against zoos. We had some great discussions where we thought about both sides of the argument and generated our own conclusions. What do you think?
Non-Chronological Reports
This week in English and Expedition we have been thinking about writing Non-Chronological reports.
We started by reading and critiquing some models.
Next we used books, videos and the internet to create a research map all about our chosen animals.
Mrs Parson’s researched an elephant. 
We then used everything we had learned about non-chronological reports and our animals to write our very own report – what do you think?
Survival
In order to answer our guiding question – Why is it important to care about animals? – this week we have been thinking about what animals and humans need to survive.

Another brilliant week
I am extremely proud of all the children at home who are working incredibly hard every day with their learning, as are the children in class. They demonstrate their resilience, enthusiasm and positive attitude to everything they do.
I do receive lots of beautiful photographs showing your work and would like to say a huge thank you for your engagement and contribution. Have a little look at a few examples of what class five have been doing this week …
Snow day!!
