Silkstone Primary School

Welcome to Class Two

Welcome to Class 2

In Class 2, the children will be working with Miss Felton and Mrs Woodger. Our priorities are for your child to feel happy, safe and secure in order to help them make the most of their learning.

Please help us to develop your child’s independence, by allowing them to come into the cloakroom on their own each morning and get themselves organised. We will have a reward jar where children can earn a reward for their effort, work, kindness and much more! Once our class jar is full we will enjoy a treat as a reward for our hard work.

To help your child with their learning, it is really important that you hear them read at least three times a week at home, recording this in their reading record book, and support them in learning their spellings each week too. Children need to bring books in to change on a Friday. Homework for children in class 2 is reading, learning spellings and using times tables rock stars.

Our PE sessions for this half term will be on a Tuesday and Wednesday, so please make sure your child brings their PE kit on these days. Thank you

Visit to Silkstone Church

We visited Silkstone Church today as part of our RE work. We looked for features in the Church and listened to a talk about the Huskar window.

We are Musicians

This term we have begun to learn how to play the recorder with Mrs Cohen from Barnsley Music Service. It is very tricky but we have made an excellent start.

We are Artists

We looked at art in nature and made our own creations.

Epilepsy Action

We ran a mile around school to raise money for Epilepsy Action. It was a long way but we kept going.

We all had a brilliantly muddy time taking on the Mini Mudder Challenge.

We all enjoyed taking art in the different races and cheering on our friends.

RSPB Old Moor

We spent a wonderful day at RSPB Old Moor as scientists exploring the natural world. We found lots of different creatures when pond dipping and identified them using a key. We enjoyed bird spotting in the hide and watching the birds on the ponds.

World Book Day

We enjoyed dressing up as our favourite story characters and immersing ourselves in reading on World Book Day.

Sketchbooks

We brought in 10 small items from home and had to sketch them carefully with pencils and pens in our sketch book. We shared our results with Year 5, who gave us some constructive feedback.
