Welcome 
Welcome to this weeks year 1/2 blog. 
We had a wonderful fun week and had plenty of learning as well.

English
The learners are now beginning to understand the way that we create  a story. They are being given lots of help and support. 
We are learning where to use full stops and capital letters. 
We are discovering what adjectives and adverbs do.





We were describing the boy standing on the desk ! :-)

Our Big Pencil Awards
I like this award because it gives the children a chance to tell their friends why a person should be awarded the "Big Pencil." For example one child was given the award because 
"they smiled all day!" 
A very lovely way to encourage positivity within the class.






Maths
We tried a new game this week to encourage learning the two times table. It's called Kahoot. It is a class game where all the students compete with each other to be the champion two times table king. We will use it again next week for other learnings. We also explored the way that division and multiplication are connected. 
Next week we will use counters to solve division problems with and without remainders.
























Unit Of Inquiry
During this inquiry we have been discovering how forces work, 
with us and against us. 
In our final activity for this unit we "invented" a "Slip and Slide."  We talked about how we could combat friction and move along the black plastic easily and have some fun as well!




















We had great fun that day!!!!!!!!!!!!

 Welcome to week 1/2's blog spot for year 1/2 First up is a celebration of students doing their work and being awarded certificates for those efforts. Tone. Bowon and Euro were awarded Study Ladder certificates this week for their work about subtraction.  Well done boys!!! The Big Pencil Award A new idea is the awarding of the BIG PENCIL  At the end of the day the student, who the other class members think has tried their best throughout the learning day, will be given this award to take home and return he next day. The children are asked to consider who has been a good friend and has been helpful to any adults around the school.  The children in the class will nominate the candidates and then we will vote on who will receive the award each day! The first and second  BIG PENCIL winners, as voted by his classmates, are  Luffy and Natasha. Well done to you both  for all your efforts on Thursday and Friday.

Week 2 2020 Team work

 TEAM WORK This week and next week we are focusing on how a great team works together. Such as how we can do things to help each other and what a great team says to each other in ways of encouragement.  Last week we tried to build tall towers. This week our tall towers were built after we had our chat about what makes a team.  I am happy to tell you that we have started to help each other and work together and talk positively together. Maths   We are learning about tens and ones and what each digit means in a number. Miss Emmi's group are also investigating digits and what they mean when we see them.  English We are starting to experiment with letter names and sounds. We are starting to find ways with computers to learn our letter names and sounds. We tried doing our first writing of the year which I can use to compare how much they have improved by the end of the school year.  U.O.I. We are now aware of the reasons we try to eat healthy food....

  Welcome back ..... ........to the second half of first term. We hope you had a relaxing break and are recharged for the path to Christmas.  Please can you support your children with reading at home.  The more they read the stronger they will become.  Here at school we will endeavor to change their book when we feel they are ready to move on to  new book. Here are some works we are proud of from last term. Swimming Mr. Dave's Jellyfish Temperature Check Each day at lunchtime we check the children's temperature and get them to wash their hands as part of our covid 19 school policy.  Here are some images of that happening.  "Happy Birthday!" (ask your child what this means!) English "Reading Eggs" is helping our students to improve their reading and phonics knowledge.  As well as this, the children read to an adult at least three times a week. Maths We were revising how to add two numbers by counting on from the larger of the two numbers.  We ...
