We had a strålende day learning all about Denmark! We researched the 5 biggest cities in Denmark, learned about Hans Christian Andersen and his stories and tried out hand at some Danish phrases too.
In the afternoon, we got into the Danish spirit of Hygge , the art of cosiness! With blankets, candles, hot chocolate and biscuits, we thought about how to spend our perfect Hygge day with those we love.
Farvel for nu! 🇩🇰

Year 2 Maple - European Languages Day
Fri 08 Oct 2021Maple class have had an exciting day for European languages day. We started off with a visit from Mrs Hall who taught us how to say Hi, goodbye and my name is. We created our own Italian flags and looked at different parts of the country. We created a fact file and learnt lots of interesting facts about Italy and ended by making our own leaning tower of Pisa - the children found it tricky working out how to make their tower lean!
Such a fun day had by everyone in Maple!

Y2 Elm Class Music
Fri 08 Oct 2021This week we were fantastic at using the untuned percussion to find a pulse (the heartbeat of the song). We were really focussed and loved using the instruments to help.
We then created our own rhythm patterns using our own class created sentences . It was great fun!

Y2 Elm European Languages Day - Italy !
Fri 08 Oct 2021Ciao everyone !
We had a fantastic time in Elm class today learning about Italy. We were very fortunate to have Miss Hall from Year 5 who lived in Italy for 5 years and so she started us off with an immersion in language ! Some of the sounds were tricky to pronounce , but we learned to say good morning, hello, bye, 123 and also some of us learned to say My name is .
It was great to also learn about some famous places in Italy such as the Colosseum in Rome and the Leaning Tower of Pisa. We had a try at making out own leaning towers. What fun we had!
We all went off home waving our Italian flags and shouting Ciao to everyone we could see.
