Class 2- Summer Term

17/6/2021

 
During the summer term class 2 have been researching and discovering about migration during their topic lessons and linked to their English. We have had some fantastic examples of poetry based on injustice from class 2 during this topic. We have used Maya Angelou’s poem ‘Still I Rise’ for inspiration.

As a Church of England school, we encourage a lot of opportunities for self-reflection for the children. We do this in a multitude of ways such as through our discussions in class and worship, using written self-reflection journals daily and the children have been developing a spiritual area outside which they have created sculptures for based on values which are important to them and inspired by the sculptor Anish Kapoor. Following on from creating our sculptures we had a visit from Adella Webb, who taught the children about mosaics. The children have created some beautiful pieces which will brighten up the spiritual area along with the flowers that the gardening group have been growing.

We have also been able to welcome Reverend Leigh back into school last week as he delivered a worship based on our school focus value this term of friendship. Inspired by these worships, some of class 2 have volunteered to lead a worship. The children planned, rehearsed and delivered worship to the whole school.

Following on from our sessions with Mrs Jolliffe last half term within our music sessions we have been learning about following musical notes to play instruments such as glockenspiels to our music.

​The year 5 and 6 children in class 2 braved the rainy weather to develop their bike riding skills during Bikeability sessions. The children were able to assess if their bikes were roadworthy and how to keep themselves safe whilst riding a bike out on the road.

Welcome to our KS2 class

TEACHER: Mrs Stefanie Lee
Years 3, 4, 5 and 6

Our school day begins with an early morning challenge which will be either maths, grammar, handwriting or spelling activity. The children have the opportunity to complete this independently and then we review this as a whole class . As the children are older, we encourage them to come into the classroom independently and begin this task after reading through the instructions on the board.
We also provide opportunities for children to have small group interventions or keep up/pre teach sessions to ensure that all children are reaching their full potential.
Our morning sessions begin with developing our writing, grammar and spelling and children are given opportunities to develop specific age related techniques. After break-time,  the children return to class for their maths lessons which consist of 15 minutes of daily fluency as well as developing their understanding, reasoning and explanation of numbers and the number system, shape, space and measures.
As a Church of England school, the Christian values are prominent in our curriculum. Children attend worship once a day and this is then referred to throughout our learning. We also attend our local village church regularly giving the children lots of opportunity to reflect on their beliefs.
To begin our afternoons the children participate in a guided reading carousel which they follow to enhance their love of reading. This allows them to discuss and reflect upon books which they have read, independently and with group support. Following that, the children explore the curriculum through a wide variety of subjects such as; R.E,  history, geography, science, PE, music, art, design and technology.                     ​

Years 3, 4, 5 and 6

Welcome to Class Two and the Spring Term.

This term we will be exploring the Vikings.  The children will be looking at what countries the Vikings invaded, the clothes they wore, food they ate and the Gods they worshipped.  We will also be creating our own weaponry and taking part in our own Viking battle on the playground!  Our Friday afternoons will be dedicated to art and design and the children we design, create and produce their own Viking Longships. 

Our mornings will focus on handwriting practice, English, spelling and grammar and our learning will centre around a book or film extract.  The children will have opportunities to explore a range of writing and produce their own stories, poetry and non fiction texts for a purpose.  We will also develop our deeper thinking in maths everyday, particular focusing on our reasoning and making connections with numbers.

Our afternoon sessions include French, Science (this term focus is our body and how it works), PE ( progression in hockey and dance) .
