SPACE DAY!
We have had an amazing and busy day. We looked great dressed as aliens and spent the morning building space rockets, buggies and buildings. We also decorated biscuits and used the iPads to launch a rocket to the moon and explore the surface on a moon buggy. We have found out so much information…
We wanted to be astronauts!
We applied to be astronauts this week and are thrilled that we got the job!
Exploring the moon landing
Vikings used AR (augmented reality) to explore the Saturn V rocket and the first moon landing. Using the iPads we were able to see some of the different modules the astronauts used including the eagle lunar craft. We were amazed at the size of the engines on Saturn V.
Where did it come from?
Vikings found an abandoned old rocket on the playground. They jumped straight in and went zooming around space. Some braved jumping from planet to planet.
Christmas is coming....
Viking class decorated the class Christmas tree. I’m sure you agree it is lovely!

Don't look now.......
As we end our exploration of Africa, look what we stumbled across.
African music
We looked at some of the tribal celebrations in Africa. We made our own jewelry and instruments and had some fun celebrating together.
Making African Pancakes
We enjoyed learning about Africa and have explored making pancakes from the story we were reading.
Comparing England to Africa
Year 2 worked together to build English countryside and African countryside scenes and English city and African city scenes. We noticed the differences and similarities. Can you think of any things that are similar and things that may be different?
