We then talked about how we have grown since being babies. The children loved talking about things the can do now that they couldn’t when they were younger. We had lots of fun taking part in different activities such as taking care of the babies, reading books, telling stories with the small world people, make flower potions and creating portraits of different things that grow.

Astronaut Training, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 15th Mar 2022 @ 9:40pm
This half term, the Year 2 children have been learning all about Space. In History, we have been learning about the rigorous training that the astronauts endured. We decided to experience some of this training first-hand. The children were tested on various skills throughout the afternoon, then had to write a log of why they were important afterwards. The stations set up for training were:
Communication- The children were given a coloured sticker on their heads. They had to find out what colour their sticker was without looking. They communicated without talking (just in case the radio signals failed in Space!).
Agility- The children had to complete jigsaws and puzzles with thick 'space gloves' on.
Balance- The children balanced on a beam, then they experienced the feeling of G-force by being spun around several times before embarking on an obstacle course!
Reactions- Their reactions were tested by having to catch a ruler being dropped by their partner.
Food tasting- They tasted some dried fruit and vegetables- mimicking some of the dried and dehydrated foods first sent up to Space.
Strength- Mrs Loftus put the children through their paces by testing their core strength. I think Mrs Loftus will be asleep early tonight, her sit-ups and planks were amazing!
Well done to all! The children received badges and certificates and have now qualified as Mission X Astronaut trainees!
Buckingham Palace, by Miss Markey
Date: 15th Mar 2022 @ 3:33pm

The children then drew/wrote all of their learning onto big paper and shared what they had learnt at the end of the lesson. Super teamwork Year 1!
