News from Base 2

This week Base 2 have jetted off into space after a fantastic half term learning all about dinosaurs.

In English, we have learnt and sorted lots of facts all bout space ready to write our very own non-chronological reports whilst in maths we have been learning how to tell the time.

During the afternoons, we have become very musical! We listened to an orchestra play Gustav Holst's composition of 'The planets', focusing on the Mars section in particular. We talked about what an orchestra is and particularly enjoyed the conductor's role. As a class, we discussed what we thought the story was that the music was telling. We thought that in some parts it sounded very angry!
