We have been enjoying taking care of our chicks and watching them grow and develop their first feathers this week. We do have lots of jobs though!

Cleaning out the cage!

These chicks are really messy!

Year 2 have been working on making their writing more interesting by using adverbs - words which tell us about the verbs in the sentence, like quickly, gently, mysteriously and angrily.
Here they are making some new sentences...

We have also been starting to make 'Friendship Soup' - so far ingredients include kindness, happiness and responsibility. We will be working on our 'method' next week!

On Thursday we learned about the Spanish artist Miro, who paints in the style of 'Magical Realism' - things look realistic but a little odd at the same time! We studied his picture 'The Farm' that was based on his memories of his life. We then had a go at our own 'The Farm' artwork, drawing things from our lives that are important to us. Here are some examples of our work so far...

Faith was in the Golden Book this week for working so hard in English over the past few weeks - remembering and then using the things we have told you to help you improve your work. 


Home Learning
Due Thursday 29th June

Your home learning this week is to see if you can find another example of some artwork in the same style as Miro's - Magical Realism.
Find a picture and stick it in your home learning books with the title and painter, then write a sentence or two about what you think about the picture.

We look forward to seeing lots of you at the re-arranged Sport's Day on Thursday 29th!
