We have had a great week in 2C and the pupils have managed the warmer climate brilliantly!

In our writing lessons the children have been continuing with looking at detailed character descriptions and how to write them, focusing on the description of the giant in Jack and The Beanstalk. They have

begun to pick it apart and identify what features of the text make it a good character description to include this in their writing next week.

In our Maths lessons, the children have been exploring looking at unit fractions and non-unit fractions this week. They have found the difference between these different types of fractions and have become better at placing numbers accurately in the numerator and denominator section.

In Science last week, the children planted their seeds. We are now monitoring the growth of these seeds weekly and are hoping to see some lovely wildflowers shortly in our area.

This week, we learnt the names of common UK plants and flowers. We then went into the school grounds and identified lots of these. We then carried out observational drawings.

In art, we imitated the work of a local artist & botanist from the 1700’s – James Bolton. We imitated his art work ‘The painted iris & summer snow drop’.
