Talk homework: Ask your adults and grandparents if they know what Buckden High Street looked like in the olden days. Do they have any memories or old photos?
World Book Day Activities!
To celebrate World Book Day this year, we have been asked to perform a poem of our choice.
Michael Rosen is one of our favourite Authors and Poets, we are HUGE fans and love watching him perform his own poems. There are lots of examples of these on Youtube, such as Chocolate Cake, Strict, Michael's Big Book of Bad Things, to name a few!
We found it really tricky to choose our favourite poem to perform in our school bubble, but in the end we chose 'Hand on the Bridge', a poem with an interesting rhythm, repetition, and opportunities to perform with our bodies.
Please see below, our own version of Michael Rosen's 'Hand on the Bridge', as performed by our lovely Year 2 Bubble!

We had a great trip to the allotment to do some digging and weeding followed by a lot of watering because the soil was quite dry. We would like to say a big thank you to all the parents who have sent in seeds and plants to support our planting this term, it is greatly appreciated.
We had a fantastic morning learning how to handle clay, starting by moulding the clay and banging it on the table to get the air out. We learnt how to shape the clay using a rolling pin.
Talk homework: Tell your adults what you have learnt about the things plants need to grow. Can you remember all the different plants you have grown in school.
Talk homework: What time did you go to bed? What time did you get up? How long were you asleep?
Talk homework: Have a look around your house to see if you have an analogue clock. Can you see o'clock and half past.
