Making - then showing - masks
As promised here are the pictures of Y2 making their masks then showing them in our class assembly today. We couldn't decide whether the class looked better with the masks on or off! We hope you enjoy looking at them.

Making and Painting!
Firstly - apologies for the upside down picture last week - I am getting to grips with our new camera! Talking of pictures, this week's photos are on the camera in school and I am on my PPA day at home right now! I'll put the pics on tomorrow.
We have had lots of fun this week painting and making. We finished our unit of literacy all about instructions by making a mask on Friday. The children are evaluating their work today with Ms Gower as the concluding piece of this Big Write.
We also had lots of fun on Thursday afternoon mixing up primary colours to make colour wheels. We also started thinking about our Christmas production, Babushka. Parents - if your child has a speaking part PLEASE spend time with them helping them to learn lines, this would help us tremendously. I hope the costume requirements are clear. If not please catch me any day except today and Wednesday this week.

Books, Domes and Dishes!
Y2 have been very busy this week doing lots of 'doing'!
In P.E. the whole of the school took part in a Virtual Festival. KS1 played Domes and Dishes in their classrooms, divided into 4 teams - strawberries, blueberries, bananas and apples - we had two whole P.E. lessons of turning over and back again! We play our next part of the festival after Christmas - watch this space for the winners!
In Literacy we have been reading writing and following instructions. This week we have focussed on making books - each day we have read instructions about a different sort of book and on Friday everyone made their own book - take a look here at our hard workers!
We also had a postcard this week from Wellington's friend, Charley who lives in Germany - Charley had been on holiday to Holland and send Wellington and Y2 some information about windmills.
Oh - and we mustn't forget that Wellington has a very special visitor from France over here, too, Antoine. Y2 have been helping Antoine and Wellington to write some French words. Tres bien!
