Captain Underpants


Room 2 love Captain Underpants. We have just finished reading the very first Captain Underpants novel and it was hilarious. It is about two boys called George and Harold who are quite naughty and like to get into trouble at school, and make comic books about a superhero called Captain Underpants. They get in big trouble with the principal of their school so they decide to try and hypnotise him to get out of trouble but it all goes wrong! We are just starting on the second book called The Attack of the Talking Toilets, we just can't wait to read it everyday.
I have put a link to the website for the author, Dav Pilkey, in the links box on the right hand side of this page, check it out!

Exploring


Our big area of learning for this term is called "Me in My Environment" so today we explored our school environment. We realised that our school is very big and has a lot of buildings but also a lot of trees, bush and grass. We walked all the way up to the very top field, up "heart attack hill" to look at some areas of our school some of us had never seen before because we don't use them very much. Next we came back to room 2 and wrote down all the things we had seen on post it notes to help us with our next task. Next we used our ideas to work with a buddy to draw big maps of our school environment. They are starting to look amazing and have so many interesting features. When they are finished we will hang them up in our classroom to help us with the next part of our learning. Hopefully we will put some of them on the blog too.

Did you know ........

That as well as interesting news and amazing work, our blog has a page with our homework sheet on it just in case you lose yours! It also links to other blogs in our school so you can see what all the children at NEVNS are up to. Just scroll down to the part that shows the list of blogs on the right hand side. Our blog is a very handy thing!
