Craft Club 11.07.19- Slime!
We had a super- gooey, squishy time at our final craft club of the year on Thursday.
We made slime 🙂 Sorry grown-ups!
We had to be really careful when adding our activator to make sure we had the perfect consistency. We selected our colours and added sequins for a sparkly textured finish 🙂
Living and Learning: I know how to cope with change.
Today we had a think about the different kinds of changes that happen in our lives. We sorted different kinds of changes into types that we can influence and times that we can’t. As a class, we came up with some strategies that could help us cope with changes that we can’t influence.
Step into The Secret Garden…
This afternoon we watched a super fun exciting production of The Secret Garden. The children all engaged well with this story. Ava said that she thought that the servants were funny. Dexter thought that it would be cool if there was a secret garden that we found. Take a look at the show.
Sports Day
Well done to all the children for showing resilience and determination in their races!
The Tiger Who Came to Tea
Today the year 2s visited the theatre. We watched a performance of The Tiger Who Came to Tea. Jacob said that his favourite part was when the tiger arrived. Mia’s favourite part was the tigerobics.
Wonderful Windchimes
Today in craft club we started making Windchimes. We used lollipop sticks and we threaded string with beads. The wooden beads will make a calming sound as they bump into each other in the wind. Take a look at our creations.
Living and Learning: I can make healthy choices.
Today we discussed the difference between making choices and healthy choices. We talked about what it means to be healthy. Lucas shared that trying to stay active is a healthy choice that he makes. As a class, we decided that healthy choices usually involve our wellbeing. Eliza suggested that it is really important to make healthy choices about our diet.
Living and Learning:I tell the truth and say sorry if I need to.
As our Christian value is honesty this half term, we had a great discussion about telling the truth and saying sorry. Dexter shared that it is sometimes hard to explain why you have done something but we must always tell the truth. Jack added that it will help the person forgive you if you give them reasons for a our actions as they will understand better.
Super Smoothies
Today our class made smoothies which links to our food topic. We have been learning about different units of measure in year 1/2. We have looked at weight and mass as well as capacity and volume. When making our smoothies, we used our knowledge of food choices to help us decide what to use.
We decided to use grams to weigh out the fruit and millilitres to measure out hthe e volume of either juice or milk. The year 2 pupils opted for milk instead of juice because they know that milk contains calcuim which can strengthen bones.
