Welcome to Class 2
Our lovely spacious classroom looks out onto the school field and is home to our year 1 and year 2 children.
Your class teachers are Mrs McDonagh and Mrs Raynes and we have support from our fantastic teaching assistants Mrs Crumpton and Ms Brown.
We have lots of areas for you to continue your learning such as construction, role play, computers and the reading corner.
Lost and Found
Autumn term
Our topic for this term will be ‘Lost and Found’. The geography focus will be on map reading and using an atlas to locate oceans and continents. The history focus will be on key people and events such as Captain Scott and his expedition.
Our super start!
Children were given a boarding pass for the Titanic and were greeted by Captain Scott who told passengers where they would be sitting on the ship, either in 1st or 3rd class!
Dungeons and Dragons
Summer 1
We made our own castles and recorded the important facts.
To develop our knowledge and understanding of castles, we visited Sudeley Castle. We had a tour around the wonderful grounds and spotted the battlements and arrow slits on the castle. We even got to meet Henry V111 and his 6 wives who gave us rings and coins. Did you know that Sudeley Castle used to have a moat?
Happy, Healthy Hearts
We used the bridge and claw cut technique to safely cut our vegetables for our healthy food wrap.
Aston Hall trip
Class 2 were transported back to 2nd September 1666 – the day the Great Fire of London started. Children thoroughly enjoyed exploring the rooms of Aston Hall and handling replica fire hooks and leather buckets which were used to put out the fire. The children fully absorbed themselves in acting out key events by dressing up as Thomas Farriner, Samuel Pepys, servants and King Charles the 2nd. We all had a fantastic time and found out even more about the Great Fire of London and just how important cheese was to Samuel Pepys!
