Ash

Ash Class has enjoyed learning about how printing has developed from William Caxton with the early printing press to the invention of the World Wide Web. The children created timelines and took part in printing activities some of which were edible! They thought about how creating books has changed and become a much easier process. A class book review was written and the children explored how to safely use the Internet to share our learning.

For the last three weeks we have been learning about Guy Fawkes and why we celebrate bonfire night. As a part of this Topic we have created a musical composition of what they interpreted a firework display would be like. We learnt about the different types of fireworks. The year 2s had a visit for the fire brigade to speak about safety on Bonfire Night. I hope you enjoy this musical firework display.

The Ash Class have really enjoyed our ‘Animal Antics’ topic this term. As part of this topic we have read Zebedee’s Zoo, Shark at the Park and Little Red Riding Hood. We have also been learning the skill of how to mix primary colours. To showcase this the children looked at pictures by the artist Steven Brown and painted their own interpretations of different animals to create an A to Z alphabet.
