Science
This term we have been working hard and having lots of fun doing Science. We’ve learned about materials and their properties. We have designed and made mini umbrellas, which we then tested by pouring water over them. We were very happy to discover that most of them worked really well and came up with ideas of how to improve the ones that didn’t work.
We have talked about living and non-living things. We are able to tell what the features of living things are and sort them into different categories and explain our decision.
We have also looked at the examples of forces (pushing, pulling and twisting) in the classroom and in the playground, predicting how applying more or less force would change the speed and direction at which objects moves.
Angles and directions
Some of us have been bus learning about right angles, quarter and half turns, and creating and following directions.
Look at Finlay’s amazing work. He created his own route and wrote instructions for it. He then got a friend to follow his route in the classroom.
Look at Max’s great work on finding right angles in our classroom.
Charlotte did some amazing work on clockwise turns.
L asked E to listen to his route. E had to listen to the directions and follow them.
Here is Alexander’s super work on shapes that have right angles.
Handwriting ✍️
Look at the boys’ amazing handwriting! Today we wrote words beginning with p. The boys and girls came up with lots of fabulous p words! 🌟✍️
Remembrance Day
Today we were learning about Remembrance Day, ahead of tomorrow. We made our own poppies to wear. Look at how smart we look! 👍🌺
One small step for man, a giant leap for p2.5 🚀
Today we had such an enjoyable afternoon creating rockets! We worked in teams to create rockets that would survive landing back to Earth. We tested them out to see if they would survive from different heights. Some survived, others crashed. We had a lot of fun watching out our rockets land.

Bonfire, Fireworks and Guy Fawkes
Today we’ve been learning a little about the history of Bonfire Night. We learned about Guy Fawkes, we watched a virtual fireworks display, we described our 5 senses at a bonfire gathering and wrote sentences, as well as creating our own fireworks art. Look at our amazing work! I will post photos of our art tomorrow once it has dried.

Seasons and months of the year
Some of us have been learning about the 4 seasons and 12 months of the year. We know what months are in each season. Look at our fabulous work!
Freaky Friday Fun!
