Outdoor learning
Whilst some children are learning in class, other pupils are continuing their learning experiences in the outdoor area.
Shajia, Ceejay and Abdulmalik decided to make an obstacle course using a variety of materials. They then decided that it didn't look safe and changed it until they were happy. To enhance the challenge they timed themselves and tried to get faster.
To enjoy the hot weather we had, the children decided to make sunbeds and relax after all their hard work inside! They improved upon their designs by raising the sunbeds off of the floor.
Other children weren't relaxing though, and instead used the resources to create their own version of horseshoe. They kept score by counting in steps of 2, 5, and 10 to keep their maths brains working whilst they were also being active.
Finally, some children decided to have a go at the teacher's challenge that gets changed weekly. This challenge relates to the learning that his happening in class. The children were puzzling over how much of a shape was shaded and deciding what fraction it represented.
Our outdoor learning is an important part of Year 2 and the children never cease to amaze us with their ingenuity!
