History topic – Explorers

charles darwin

Our History topic for the Summer term is Explorers. We will be following a very famous local explorer called Charles Darwin who was born in Shrewsbury.

Your task is to do some research about the life of Charles Darwin. Who was he? When was he born? Where did he go to school?

There is a task on Purple Mash for you to create a fact file about him. There is no closing date so you can add extra detail as you find more about him.

Here are some websites to help get you started:

Over 60 Virtual Tours and Trips around the world.

As we are not able to get out and about over the Easter holidays, I have found and added some virtual tours and trips around the world. Anyone for exploring the Eiffel Tower? or maybe you fancy a trip to a museum?

Virtual tours

Whatever, you choose to do, please have a wonderful Easter break. Stay safe and well. I can be contacted on the class email: class.twoteacher@taw.org.uk and will check the emails periodically over the holidays.

Thank you for all the wonderful work you are doing. I have really enjoyed seeing it all.

Class 2 – Art Challenge

I have some little art challenges for you!  These will need to be emailed to me on class.twoteacher@taw.org.uk when you have completed them.

Challenge 1:

Year 1 and Year 2: Create patterns using natural materials (pebbles, sticks, leaves, petals, shells, etc) You can make your patterns into a picture, or think mathematically with repeating patterns.

Challenge 2: A photography challenge.

Year 1: Choose an object and simply take a photo of it.  You could take a photo of a pet or a plant, an object from your house or garden.

Year 2: Take a photo using zoom to show the object in detail. I have taken a photo of my dining room chair to give you an example.

Have fun and I look forward to seeing your pictures.

Monday 30th March 2020 – STEM challenge

Good morning Class 2.

I have a challenge for you today… are you feeling creative???  Use whatever materials you can find around your house. You can write about this investigation in your yellow books and draw out your ideas before building and testing. Investigate what materials worked well and what materials didn’t work so well.

STEM Challenge

Remember to send me any pictures of your boats carrying the cargo to class.twoteacher@taw.org.uk.

Have fun!
