This term we have been looking at books written by Oliver Jeffers. As our final piece of writing for this unit, the children wrote their own version of the story ‘Stuck’. The children had so much fun being silly with their ideas and produced some fantastic pieces of writing! Here are a few examples.

The children had so much fun during our after-school phonics session!

They played phonic games on the laptop and practiced their reading skills by revisiting a phonics screening from last year.

Year 2 had a wonderful day celebrating World Book Day. They did lots of activities centered around their author, ‘Mini Grey,’ and her books. These activities included writing the next chapter of ‘Traction Man is Here,’ acting out the circus scene from ‘Biscuit Bear,’ and writing a persuasive letter advocating for planting more trees, inspired by the book ‘The Last Wolf.’

As part of the day’s events, Year 2 also took part in some buddy reading with Year 6 students. They had a great time sharing stories with their older classmates!
