Computing in Year 2!

In computing sessions this term Year 2 have been busy learning how to organise and collected data and then enter this data into Google Sheets on our Chromebooks.  The children have also secured their understanding of the Scratch Jr program to plan a sequence of instructions to move sprites and then debug algorithms.  They have also had fun testing games on Scratch Jr to work out the rules for some pre-built games. ScratchJr is a free resource that can be accessed at home on Tablets and Pc's.    
   













Fiji Forest School

Fiji class had a busy day on Wednesday, with a trip to the cinema in the morning and Forest School in the afternoon! This week we enjoyed a Gruffalo themed forest school. We read the story and them went looking for the different characters around the wood. There was lots of owl ice cream and roasted fox made at the mud kitchen too. There was some excellent balancing along the slackline as they tried it for the first time. Well done Fiji!

Year 2 say goodbye to the chirping chicks!

 We had to say goodbye today to the special guests we have had in year 2. Our chicks sadly went back to the farm today after providing us with some wonderful memories. We have spent the last two weeks watching them hatch and grow.  This experience is linked to our work on living things, life cycles and habitats. It has been so lovely seeing the chicks emerge from their shells and we were amazed how quickly they changed. Even after a few days you could see their feathers growing.



















"Did you know the brown chicks were the girls and the yellow ones were the boys?"  said Roman.
