Year 2 have continued their coding journey into the unknown with some serious BlueBot action! By predicting, writing and implementing algorithms, pupils have developed their understanding while also improving teamwork, communication and resilience skills! Oh, and also having a ton of fun fun fun!
In science, we are looking at animals including humans. We looked at similarities and differences between adults and babies of the same species, and then planned some questions we could ask about pregnancy, babies and toddlers.
On Monday, we were lucky enough to welcome five visitors to school who were able to answer our questions – three mums and two youngsters! Year 2 we SOOOOO polite and well behaved, and asked our visitors lots of sensible, thoughtful questions – thanks for coming mums and well done Y2!
It’s 2J’s turn for some Forest School action! Mr H took the children out for their first session, and it was fun with a capital F! It was a beautiful, brisk morning and the class showed loads of amazing skills – teamwork, communication and creativity. Bring on next week!
We started our new programming unit by… becoming robots! Children created algorithms to direct each other round the classroom and began to understand the need for clearly sequenced, precise commands – otherwise they ended up walking into a wall! Fun times – this programming unit is going to be fab!
