Year 2 have been lucky enough to visit Newcastle Central Mosque where we met Brother Khadim.
We learned loads of information about Muslim people and their prayer rituals.
Year 2 really enjoyed their drama workshop on improvisation.
We thought about what the cone could be, it could be anything but a cone. Can you guess what our cones were?
Year 2 have hit the ground running with their DT project. We planned, created and evaluate our prayer mats using the new skills we have learned including running stitch for appliqué, printing, attaching buttons and sequins.
Year 2 got practical in maths this week when looking at weight in kg. We weighed ourselves and compared our weights by finding the difference between different people.
We used vocabulary such as heavier, lighter and equal.
Year 2 got stuck into eco week this week where our focus was on South America.
We located the country using maps and globes, thought about the climate and animals and their habitats and finally engaged in a debate about deforestation of the Amazon rain forest. We were lucky enough to virtually meet a polar oceanographer, soil scientist and a palaeontologist. We loved it!
Reception loved creating the witches cottage from Hansel and Gretel using patterns.
Reception went to visit Newcastle Castle and the guide was so impressed with their vocabulary!
