The boys in 2W have enjoyed another busy and productive week! In Science, the boys carried out an investigation to see how exercise impacts our heart rate. Prior to conducting this investigation, the boys made predictions and then tested these by carrying out various physical activities for a minute each. They were able to conclude that when they are active their heart rate increases and understood the importance of exercise for a healthy heart.

During English lessons, the boys used effective adjectives to write a detailed description of a character from the story ‘Wild Thing’. This understanding of adjectives was further embedded during Welly Time, when the boys used adjectives to describe natural materials that they had found in the environment. Later on, in the week, the boys wrote a persuasive piece of writing entitled ‘A day at the seaside is great’. They certainly convinced the reader of the many virtues of a day at the seaside!

Our Maths focus was on securing their understanding of place value, number bonds and exploring patterns and sequences with numbers. The boys used their Maths journals to answer word problems and explain their reasoning.

Well done boys!
