Over the last couple of weeks Year 2 have been learning about the importance of teamwork.
Children worked together to plan and design a bird for our ‘Garden of Dreams and Goals’
This week, children worked together to make their birds! Fantastic teamwork was demonstrated by all groups!

Tonight, staff at Christopher Pickering Primary School are discussing how we promote the fundamental British Values in our school.
Here are some maths sheets to do at home with your child. These topics have already been covered in class since September and would make good practise.
Work through them at your own pace and bring any completed sheets to your teacher. Don’t worry if you can’t do them, only do what you can.
Have fun with them!
This week we are looking at how different fruit and vegetables grow.
We drew some seeds and predicted which will turn into a seedling first.
Then we planted some seeds, covered them with soil, watered them and placed them near a window.
Chris from The University of Hull has been coming in to Christopher Pickering Primary School every Friday for the last 4 weeks to teach Dance and Drama to our Key Stage 1 children.
On Friday (31st January) the children performed a dance to the rest of the school. The performers and the audience both really enjoyed the performance.
Well done to our Key Stage One children! You were fantastic!
Thank you so much to all the parents that were able to make our ‘Read, Write Inc’ afternoon today.
The children absolutely loved it and were keen to show what they do during phonics lessons, and how they share books with you.

This week the children in Year 2 have looked at the story ‘Elmer on Stilts’.
The children acted out the story and created a story map.
They also wrote a setting description and a character description.
Today the children re-wrote the story. They have learned how to use paragraphs!
Well done Year 2!
We used our nose, mouth, hands, ears and eyes to work out what was in the senses boxes.
We had lots of fun trying to work out what we could see, smell, hear, touch and taste.
We wrote down our responses and compared notes with each other.
We worked incredibly hard all afternoon and had great fun!!
Yesterday, we learned how to share objects equally. We worked in teams to share different objects into groups of two. We then counted how many objects were in each group.
After practising sharing objects using concrete manipulatives, we were then able to share pictorially.
We had so much fun on our second visit to Christopher Pickering Lodges!
We played a game of boules with the residents
We enjoyed learning how to play dominoes
We took turns to play a game of table tennis
We even taught some of the residents how to floss!
Ant they showed us how to dance together with scarves!
We hope to go back and see our new friends again soon
