Class 2's Big Books of Science!, by Mr McGurk

Date: 10th May 2019 @ 12:02pm

Class 2 have been using their 'Big Books of Science' to record our plant investigation. We used them to decide what we would investigate, what we would do, what we thought would happen and what we actually found out.

 Here are just a few examples of all thier hard work.

Class 2's Chick Visitors, by Mr McGurk

Date: 9th May 2019 @ 7:59pm

To help us understand animal life cycles Class 2 have been very lucky to have some very new visitors.

Thomas Hizzard's family brought in an incubator with a small clutch of eggs for us to watch and observe.

It was very exciting and we were very lucky to have 9 chicks hatch in our classroom. We even got to see some of the chicks push their way out of their shells and chip their way out withtheir egg tooth. We learned to identify some of the breeds such as White Wine Dots, Rhode Island Reds and Pekins. One of the most exciting moments was when we discovered that 'Batchick', who is a black chick, is an unknown breed and we are still hoping to find out more. We have researched the life cycles of chicks and hens and look out for some of our writing appearing soon.

What a brilliant experience.

Our trip to The Judges Lodgings in Lancaster!, by Mr McGurk

Our topic for the first part of the spring term has been all about 'Our Childhood'. We have been learning all about what it was like to be a child for our parents, grandparents and as far back as the Victorians.

The Judges Lodgings is a museum in Lancaster dedicated to teaching us all about childhood through the ages. We dressed up as Victorian school children, learned what it was like to work in a Victorian home, met some interesting people and even handled some old toys oursleves.

We learned so much and this is just a snapshot of our day!

Just before half term Classes 1 and 2 joined up to create a miniature version of Warton.

By using all that we learned this half term we worked very hard and created Main Street and the surrounding buildings. It was a fantastic morning and gave all the children in both classes to mix up and work with different children.

Our Field Trip to the Crag, by Mr McGurk

Class 2 had an amazing day exploring the Crag and finding out more about local landmarks and history.

What a day it was! The wind really took it out of us but Bea, the park ranger, took us on quite an adventure. She introduced us to some new and exciting parts of the Crag, including an old ruined house and mystery artefacts.

Take a look and see how we got on.
