Grafting with graphs!

This week, we were looking at the difference of temperature and weather patterns between India and England – namely looking at the monsoon season. The aim of the lesson was for the children to use graphs to compare data. Now I must admit, as class teacher I thought that this would be a rather difficult task for the children to complete. However, we practiced a bit first and then set the children off. In the end, they were fantastic! They were reading them rather well and were able to spot patterns in the geographical data. I had a proud geography teacher moment.

We’re going on a bug hunt, we’re going to catch a big one!

Good Afternoon Families of 2A!

Happy Friday and its a pleasure to get the first blog post of the year up and running. This last week in science lessons we have been looking at animals and their habitats. Now, while we were looking for minibeasts and their habitats, I couldn’t help but notice some fascinating butterfly chrysalises around the site near our building and I would be remiss not to get the children to hunt them down in one of our afternoons.

So we went on a hunt for these butterfly cocoons and frankly found rather a large amount of them! (Credit to the children). Take a look at the photos and see for yourself.
