Check out our blog posts below and find out some of the fun things we've been getting up to in Oak Class this year!
In Theme, we have been learning about the Legend of Robin Hood. We have learnt all about the History of the Medieval Period, the features of a castle and the Geography of Nottingham and Sherwood Forest. We have also looked at evidence to help us decide whether Robin Hood was real or not!
Below are some examples of fantastic Robin Hood inspired instruction writing from Year 2.
In Science this term, we have been exploring different materials and their properties. We conducted a fair experiment to test which material would be the most absorbent - microfibre cloth, felt or and tissue. We made predictions prior to the experiment and unanimously voted the tissue would be the least absorbent, with the class split over microfibre cloth or felt for being the most! For all groups, it was discovered that the felt was the material that absorbed the most water, making it the best material to soak up a spill!
