Please follow the link to see the exciting things we will be learning in LKS2 during the Autumn term.
Roman invasion
In expedition we have been learning all about the Romans. Yesterday, we focussed on finding out when the Romans invaded Britain. We sorted the timeline of events and discovered that the Romans invaded Britain in 43 AD under Emperor Claudius’s control. As a crew, we had a discussion about what AD and BC meant in relation to the dates on our timeline.
Little Red Riding Hood Experience Lesson
Today we started looking at our new English text, Little Red Riding Hood. We talked about the book and I was impressed by how many children could recall the story. After we read our book we made baskets and skipped around school just like Little Red Riding Hood skipped through the forest. All the treats made it safely back to class and thankfully we didn’t meet a wolf (this time!).
Reading – Book Talk
This morning in reading, Crew Thompson used text marking to help unpick the text. We started new pages this week so it was really important to get a good understanding of the text and what the key words meant. In our next book talk lesson, we will use our text marking to help create a class glossary of these key words. This will really help us in our demonstration lesson later on in the week.
Delivering a bun to Grandma 🧁💕
Today we created our own baskets to take to Grandma who was feeling poorly at the other side of the woods. We loved making our baskets and discussing the traditional tale – Little Red Riding Hood. We all looked after our buns and didn’t eat them until the end!
Conjunction work in MI
We continued our grammar work today where we looked at the conjunctions and but because. We did lots of chotting and shared writing before having a go at our own sentences. We will continue to practice these conjunctions 🙂
Caring crew in MI
Thinking about what family means to us all 🙂
Book Talk Week 3📖🗣️
During Book talk this week we listened to miss model her fluent reading. We critiqued her and adopted her reading skills. We explored ‘The problems of deforestation’ and answered questions together thinking out loud using our reading skills.
Show and tell crew 💕
KS1 have decided that every Friday we want to hold and show and tell crew where children can share something from outside of school with their crew. It’s a great opportunity for us to get to know each other better and practise our speaking and listening skills.
Firefighter lab 👨🏻🚒🧯
This week we have worked really hard in our labs on our cutting skills and being able to follow instructions.
