We have finished using are microbits this week Andy we’ve had a go at choosing our own programming.

In our PE lesson with Miss Jarrett today we used the equipment to show our balancing and transition skills. It was so much fun and we were all very sensible using the equipment safely. 

We’ve had a lovely afternoon exploring shape, texture and shadow. Challenging our ability to observe and record, mark make and create. We’ve got some wonderful artists in Class 2!

We have been on the gym equipment today which we were all very excited about. 

We’ve had a great afternoon exploring shadow. We looked at what a shadow is, how it is made and then had a go at drawing some.  It was not easy but the children did a fantastic job!

The children have been using various equipment in Gymnastics to hold a number of poses.

We have had our first Junior cadets session working with our local PCSO today.

Today we planted out our seeds/seedlings into compost. Some of the seeds have germinated beautifully whilst others have hardly changed at all.  It’s been a great visual example for the children to see that even given all the right conditions, not all seeds will continue the life cycle.

We have had a lovely first day in York. 

We’ve had a wonderfully expressive afternoon creating self portraits in the style of Picasso. The children focused on mark making, composition and colour. They created some fabulous work!

We all managed to produce something in knitting today. The children all tried really hard and have learnt a new skill. I know some of them are keen to continue at home and I would love to see anything they go on to create.

We’ve been busy in Computing today learning all about ‘commands’. The children had a great time programming their robots with their chosen commands and then watching them go!
