Well done to our VIP Ciara!
Fabulous Diwali dancing
So much thinking today. Will the orange float or sink? What if we peel it, will it sink or float? Lots of I wonder why moments!
An amazing science lesson today, first we made a boat, then we had a race! Which boat will win?
Well done to our two superstars this week. Mrs Losada is very proud of you
Making delicious pirate biscuits during our pirate day

Have a go at practising our pirate songs with Miss Godfrey.
Try joining in with Miss Godfrey and practise your songs.
Can we make a vessel that floats using things from home?
We were scientists this afternoon. We had great fun making a boat out of play dough. They did not float, we thought about why, perhaps they were too heavy? We are going to bring in junk from home to see if we can make a vessel that will float.
Well done Ama Shaniya for being a great Polly Problem Solver in Maths!
Well done Safa, you're really working hard with your writing
Well done Aaron, I had a great time on the VIP table with you!
Miss Godfrey taught us some pirate shanty songs this week

Partitioning numbers in different ways
This week we have been investigating all the different ways you can partition 2 digit numbers.
Have a look at the diagram below to see:
We love our new outdoor story area
During Golden Time, we took our treasure box outside to dress up and act like pirates. We had a great time telling stories and role playing the real life of a pirate.
Representing 2digit numbers
It's really important before we start any maths that teaching that the children have a secure understanding of place value. This week we have been using a range of mathematical equipment to make 2 digit numbers, this will really help the children have a visual image of what that number looks like and is worth, rather than being abstract. We have used:
- Base 10
- Numicon
- 10ps and 1ps
- Tens and Ones counters
- Multilink cubes
- Straws
Shapes in Gymnastics
We are very lucky to have the coaches from the Olympian gymnast, Beth Tweddle, teach us gymnastics this half term. This week we perfected our shapes.
Our First Week in Year 2
Wow what a great start to Year 2. Mrs Losada is so pleased she has a class of superstars who are always going for gold.
The Pirates Sent Us On A Treasure Hunt Around Our School. We Did It- EASILY!
