Our theme for Summer 2 is Fit Kids!

This term we will be learning how to keep our bodies healthy as well as celebrating the UEFA Euro's and the Japan Olympics!

Week 1

We hope that you all had a lovely half term break and enjoyed the much needed sunshine! This week our theme has been planting. We have been learning about what plants need to grow. In English we have been writing instructions to help us plant our sunflower seeds. In Maths we have been learning about Time. We have been sequencing days of the week and months of the year. We also learnt how long 1 minute is. In PE, we begun Athletics where we were practicing jumping. On Friday we went on a plant walk. We discovered that we have lots of different plants including mint, sage, roses and onions! We led our own science investigation based on plants. Alder class decided they wanted to find out whether more soil makes a plant grow bigger. Holly class decided that they wanted to find out whether bigger seeds make bigger plants. We are looking forward to finding out what happens!
