Class 2

 

 

Welcome to Class 2  

In the morning, year 1 are taught by Mrs Raynes and year 2 are taught by Mrs Milward.

In the afternoon they are taught together by Mrs Raynes (Mon - Forest School) and Mrs Milward (Tues-Fri).

We have support from our fantastic teaching assistants Mrs Crumpton, Ms Brown and Miss Greening.

The year 1 classroom has lots of continous provision for the children to learn through play. We have lots of areas such as construction, role play, computers and the reading area.

The year 2 classroom is in the IT room and is set up for more formal learning.

 

Diwali Pots

We made beautiful diva lamps as part of our Art learning, using coils to shape the clay.

 

Topic Sharing

We had a fantastic afternoon showing our parents, grandparents and other adults around our 'Enhanted Wood' at Forest School. We had a challenge to use our map reading skills that we have learnt during our topic.

 

Trip to Puzzlewood

The children in class 2 had a wonderful trip to Puzzlewood on Wednesday, as part our 'Enhanted Wood' topic and our Science topic of 'Animals'. We enjoyed helping give the animals their breakfast, feeding goats, chickens, ducks, ponies and donkeys. We then explored the magical woodland: climbing up steps, balancing on planks and walking along the twisting paths. We also had great fun in their maze, hunting for different animals pictures.

 

The Enhanted Wood

            

Our topic term is called ‘The Enchanted Wood’. During the topic we will be learning about physical features of Geography such as forests, mountains, valleys and rivers. In History, we will look at how Eckington has changed over time and our own family trees. If you have any old photos of the school or village that you would like to share, please get in touch. If you or a grandparent used to go to the school we would love to hear from you. We are excited to be going on a trip to Puzzle Wood soon, to enhance our learning.
