Term 2 Week 7 20.12.24

Another end to a fantastic term. It has been a busy one with lots of fun festivities. Some of our children are in the school choir and they sang at a local care home. KS2 sang some Christmas songs to the parents as they came to collect their children on Thursday. We've had Christmas school dinner and finished the term with a Christmas party!

In Literacy this week, we looked at the poem Twas The Night Before Christmas. We explored the rhyming pattern, figurative language and finding the meaning of unknown words. We used the poem to design a new sleigh for Santa using Tinkercad. We created a Christmas themed game on Scratch and wrote instructions on how to play it. This linked to developing our Computing skills. 

In Maths, we have used our skills and knowledge to complete Christmas based problem solving activities.

In Science, we completed our games that we made based on our topic this term on animals and plants. There have been some great ideas and games played.

In Geography, we explored what happens when rivers flood. We looked at the cause and effect and the devastation they have on communities and countries.
