Spring 2 Floorbook Class 2

Butterfly Bouquet

This half term we have been reading the book 'My Butterfly Bouquet'.

We have learnt so much through this story... lifecycles of butterflies, seasons and how they change, some facts about butterflies including how they protect themselves from predators and how a little bit of colour can help cheer up the darkest of days!

A bouquet is a bunch of something!

Being Responsible

The Yellow Raindrop had a problem and we thought of some different ways to help him. Can you think of anything we may have forgotten?

Tell the teacher! Every time someone says mean things to a friend. You should tell the teacher.

The Rainbow Room

We have a special place in our school that we can visit if we have a problem. It is called the Rainbow Room. Mrs. Boardman came to talk to us to remind us about where it is and what it is for. We then went for a little visit so that we knew exactly where it was in school.

I am Mrs Boardman, I have a teddy to help with worries

There are lots of toys in there!

RE: What people are special and why?

We were given a 'special' box. We were not sure what was inside... we made lots of different predictions. We found out that we are special! We wrote about why we think we are special in our books!

We are all good at different things. I am good at gymnastics.
Harvey

I make cards for people to make them happy.

Healthy or Unhealthy?

We looked at all the different foods that the 'Very Hungry Caterpillar' ate. We sorted the foods into healthy or unhealthy foods and gave reasons for our decisions.

Isabelle 'Can we have spring onions?'

We designed a healthy sandwich for 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar'. We discussed what fillings we could put in it. We discussed how 'best of both' bread is better than white bread as it contains wholemeal and white flour.
We also discussed how too much salt can be bad for you.

We decided that ham, cheese and tuna were healthy options. Some of the children suggested extra fillings which we added to the shopping list too!

Making a healthy sandwich

First we spread the butter onto the bread.

Tomatoes, cheese, ham...makes a healthy sandwich

It was hard to spread the butter as you needed to use your muscles

Then we chose our fillings and added them to the sandwich. Some of us chose more than one filling e.g. ham and cheese!

We even 'cut' and 'chopped' some of the fillings e.g. cucumber

Finally we cut our sandwiches up and placed them in a sandwich bag to take home.

Ask us if we can remember some safety tips about using knives!

RE: Special Times

We have been talking about times that are special for us.

Easter

We talked about different festivals that we celebrate.

Christening

Christmas

wedding

RE: Special Times

There are lots of events and things that happen that are special and make us feel happy!

Birthdays

Holidays

Births

RE: Special Times

We thought about different Celebrations. We found out there was a festival called 'Sukkot'. We read a story about Sammy Spider and how he visited a family who were celebrating Sukkot.

We found out that Sukkot is a Jewish celebration. It is celebrated by creating Sukkahs in an outdoor space. The sukkahs are decorated with fruit.
