Brilliant Beetles.

What a fabulous week the Beetles have had!  They have definitely risen to the new challenges of being Year 2.

In Maths, they have used the numberlines and multi-link to support their learning and their maths vocabulary to explain their understanding.  It has been wonderful to see and hear them share ideas with their partners and the whole class. 

In PE this week, the children had to focus on manoeuvring between obstacles to collect matching disks.  They demonstrated great teamwork, supporting each other and giving advice to help those who found some of the moves tricky.

In Computing this week, the children looked at algorithms and really played the part by 'being programmed' themselves to follow Mrs Rockey's algorithm. There were lots of left, right and jumps to be made.

We finished our Topic on Plants today and it was super to hear great vocabulary being used when they were sharing what they had learnt over the past 3 weeks. Lots of focussed writing followed when the children wrote about their learning. 

We have continued to share stories each day and next week we have a session in the school library.  The children will be able to borrow a book to share with you at home.  Look out for a library book in their bags on Wednesday. 

The Brilliant Beetles have already filled their Gem Jar, and so today they had extra playtime on the trim Trail as a reward.  

Thank you to those who were able to make the 'Meet the Teacher' meeting but I understand if this was not possible for you.  I have letters detailing all the information, so please let me know if you have not received your letter and I will forward one to you.

Just a reminder, PE is on Tuesday and the children should come to school in their PE kit.

Mrs Jeffery will be in class; Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday with Mrs Rockey taking Beetle Class on Thursday. 

Well done again Beetle Class.
