In maths this week we are looking at arrays and how they can help us with our group counting. We looked at the rows and columns and how we can use these to write a number sentence. We had a selection of arrays and worked together to write the column addition and the row addition.
In our Learning Means The World theme, ‘Light Up The World’ we have been looking at the sun and creating leaflets and posters of the rules we need to follow in order to be safe when we are out in the sun. We have found out that suncream, glasses, hat and t-shirts are very important. We then designed our own split pin lever card to show the sun and how we keep ourselves safe

2 Blue have had a fantastic time exploreing the Sunderland Winter Garder rainforest through art.
They sketched in the forest, looking carefully at the different types of leaves, and then created some master pieces in the museum classroom using different types and shades of pastels.
We even had time to sqeeze in scavenger hunt around the rest of the museum!
The children were a credit to the school with their excellent manners and behaviour.
This week in LMTW, we explored how Brazil is tackling conservation issues. First, we carried out some research and then we presented our findings as a news report.
We had a fabulous day at the farm. We gave lots of cuddles to animals of all shapes and sizes and fed lots too. It was a fabulous first hand experience for everyone.
We took part in our sponsored circuit morning with our special visitor Paralympian Lucy Turner. We did spotty dogs, mountain climbers, press ups and star jumps. We completed our circuits in approximately 7 minutes and we were brilliant. We have collected lots of money to go towards buying new sports equipment for our school. We are so proud of ourselves!
Today we took part in our ‘sponsored sports circuits’ in collaboration with ‘Sports for Schools’. The children were all extremely motivated and willing to have a go which made the whole event a huge success. Lucy and Chris who carried out the event commented on how amazing and committed the children were and that they were a credit to the whole school. The session was finished off with question and answer style assembly where the children found out all about Lucy’s path to becoming a Paralympian. The message from Lucy was ‘you can achieve your dreams if you just give 100% to all you do’. Well done Hebburn Lakes!
This week Year 2 have started their new Learning Means the World theme, Going Wild!
To start our science based theme we collected photographs of our pets. We used guidance from the RSPCA to create posters of ‘How to looks after pets’.
The children showed just how knowledgeable and caring they are, and produced brilliant, eye-catching posters, full of good advice for pet owners.
