Last week in class 2

On Monday we started learning about teeth in science by having a look in our mouths and thinking about the names of different teeth. The teeth names are also our table names so hopefully we will remember them!
Our Roman dance is progressing well but we need a bit more time to complete it and are hoping to spend an afternoon working on it before the end of term, our dance lessons are not long enough and we are very motivated by being Roman soldiers (and Celts this week)!!!
Wednesday saw the start of our advent calendar, well we have two calendars actually. One present one and a religious picture one too. We are lucky to have 24 children in the class! Each day someones name gets picked out of a special box to decide who opens it.
Also on Wednesday the Y3/4 got given their projects. This is a project that traditionally Y3 have always done but it wasn't done last year so both Y3/4 are doing it now. The children have until February to research a topic of their own choosing and produce a book on it which they will then do a talk about to the class. The majority of children seemed genuinely excited at the prospect. The idea is that it will be their own work but they will need direction, support and encouragement!
On Wednesday afternoon we planned our Christmas display which we hope to create on Monday afternoon. The children are working in pairs or threes to produce something connected to Christmas.
