Attendance last week was very positive with all class above 92%, we had so many children with 100%, keep up the hard work.
We have had lots of fun this week exploring the story of The Gingerbread Man.
We made our own playdough and used it to create our own gingerbread man, using buttons and gems to decorate it. We used magnetic fishing rods to “save” the gingerbread man from the “river”. Using pictures from the story, we retold the story in our own words – we were great at this!
To end the week, we decorated our own gingerbread man biscuit using icing sugar and chocolate treats for the eyes and buttons! We waited very patiently until hometime to eat them (not all of our gingerbread men made it out of nursery gates in one piece!) Yum, yum!
Year 2 were very lucky to have a visit from Year 2 parent, Mark, from Media Partnership. We found out all about his job within a media production company. This experience really helped us gain a better understanding of how film and television is made. After asking our questions to find out what happens behind the camera and the equipment used for recording, we all got to try out the green screen. We particularly enjoyed trying out our acting skills to float around space, relax on a desert island, present the news, swim underwater, support Hebburn Town at their football club and even visit the Eiffel Tower!
