Julia Donaldson

During our first weeks back during Spring Term we studied stories by Julia Donaldson.
We read 'Room on the Broom' and used freeze frames to act out the main parts of the story.
Can you guess which characters our children were playing?!

Pom Poms!

During the last week of term Purple Class learned how to make pom pom decorations. They made it look easy but it takes lots of patience and concentration!

Christmas Show

Thank you so much to all the parents and carers who came to watch our fantastic Christmas Show. We really hope you enjoyed our class song, 'I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas'. Purple class worked so hard rehearsing their song and making their snowflake costumes. Well done!!

Christmas Lanterns

In Maths, Purple Class measured strips of coloured paper to make Christmas lanterns, which we used to decorate our classroom.

Poetry

For the next two weeks Year 2 Purple are learning all about poetry. First, we worked in groups to perform different poems with actions.

We have looked at lots of different poems including silly poems and shape poems and have been learning about the different features of poetry including rhyme, repetition and alliteration.

We looked at a particularly beautiful poem by Kit Wright called 'The Magic Box' and then we had a go at writing our own.

Visit from the farm

Year 2 Purple got me meet a variety of farm animals and learn about how they are used and cared for. We then made a class information book about farm animals as part of our unit on non-fiction texts.

Bollywood Workshop

We also had a Bollywood dance workshop where Purple Class got to show off their moves!
