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.
Penpals
Today in craft club, we made pencil top characters. We used pipe cleaners and googley eyes to bring our characters to life. Take a look at our creations!
Our afternoon at the Church.
Today we had our Church experience session. Throughout the afternoon, we took part in lots of exciting activities. We thought about praying, spreading the word of Jesus’ love as well as the history of the church.
Brilliant Bakers
Yesterday, we put our measuring skills to the test.We made a marble cake. In maths, we have been looking at using weighing scales to measure amounts in grams. We looked at the recipe carefully and we took our time when measuring out the ingredients in grams.
Living and Learning: I can see things from other people’s point of view.
This week we had a class discussion about our living and learning statement. We all agreed that this is a very difficult thing to do sometimes. Harley suggested that it can be easier to think about other people’s reasons for doing things if we step back and think for a while. Mia shared that “if we talk about it with that person then we might be able to understand”. As a class, we understood the importance of being able to respect other people’s point of view.

Living and Learning: I know honesty is important.
We have been thinking about our Christian value of honesty. After discussing what we think honesty means we talked about whether it always makes people happy. We talked about why it is important to be honest and about what happens if we are not. We then made an acrostic poem about honesty. 
Living and Learning:I can make choices about my money.
This week we have been discussing all of the things we could do with our money. As a school we have decided to bring all of our 1p and 2p coins from home so that we can create a penny trail. We will donate all of the money that we collected to the Dogs Trust charity. We also made a tubes to represent the collection of our class. We have chosen to give our money to an organisation for a good cause. Take a look!
