This week the boys had a debate – which was the best invention, the car or the telephone? They worked in teams to discuss their ideas and then presented them to the rest of the class. We have some very persuasive boys in 2M and some people even changed their opinion by the end of the lesson!

On Tuesday we had a very exciting science workshop. There were lots of explosions! I am sure the boys would love to tell you about it.

Today we went to visit the Science Labs. We used wires, bulbs, batteries (cells) and switches to make circuits.

 

 

This week the boys have been investigating 2D and 3D shapes. We have used the terms “edges”, “faces” and “vertices”.  Today, they had a go at using different construction kits to make 3D shapes. Maybe you could have a go at home too?

 

 

 

 

 

This week we have been telling the time. Some boys found this a bit tricky, especially when dealing with “quarter to” times. You might like to practise at home using digital and analogue clocks. These games will help
