A video from Mr Wilson to support children with division



Hi everyone, 
I hope you have all been enjoying the wonderful weather. As division has always been an area of Maths that the children have found challenging, Miss Woodcock and I thought that it would be a good idea to share a video with you to further support the children's learning. 

Below is an introduction video on division and the bus stop method. If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to email. 

Many thanks and best wishes, 

Mr Wilson



Updates from Kahlo Class

Hello Kahlo Class!

I hope you've been enjoying the sunshine this week - lots of you have clearly been making the most of the sunshine and building some very creative obstacle courses.

William and Oliver have built an extremely exciting looking course - I believe the championship was tied with William being faster and Oliver getting more points on the rounds. Time for a re-match!


Lilly included one of my favourite sports in her obstacle course...I doubt the pressure got to you, Lilly, that looks like a goal to me.



Dylan has created a beautiful sketch to represent how he will feel when we come to the end of lock-down. I really love how evocative this art work is - and how it uses the rainbow as a symbol of hope and peace after this global 'storm'.



I was truly amazed by the quality of your poems, Kahlo, they certainly made Mrs Moore's task extremely difficult. Congratulations to both Kem and William for their winning entries. I have been thinking how best we can share all of your work, as it was of such excellent quality...stay tuned! Until then, I will be sharing poems on this blog. 

Well done to Noah for the excellent personification in his poem...


I enjoyed Keira's very current approach to her poetry...



A hopeful and warm poem from Kiera...



I really enjoyed the very different aspects of the poem Josh wrote - he took me from furrowed brow to big grin...



 I thought Adam had written with a rather Shakespearean voice in his poem....




I thoroughly enjoyed the careful use of structure from George, it gave a true rhythm to his poem...




Keep an eye out for the next entry, as I will be sharing all the poems we received. Each and everyone of you wrote something very special - I can say with complete certainty that Kahlo is a class filled with budding poets.

Exploring habitats in Year 2

In Science, Year 2 have been getting out into their gardens and their local habitats to discover the plants and animals that live there. We've been looking closely at microhabitats, lifting rocks and logs to explore the wonderful world of minibeasts and we've used our research skills to explore different habitats around the world. Some of our young scientists even used their own ideas to explore this topic further.

We've loved seeing all your work, videos, photographs and dioramas, Year 2. 
A huge well done from Mrs Higo, Mrs Price and Miss Kilby. :)
