A Window into 2i's World: May 2009
http://cdnpyp2il.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
A Window into 2i's World. We have a shiny new sign. Well, in truth, it is neither shiny nor new; it is ‘green’ as in recycled. And it took my eye; largely because of the fact that the letters had been cleverly formed by leaving spaces unpainted white. But I digress (so no change there then! Look closely; what do you notice? What can possibly have happened to it? There was work to be done too. Warm sunny weather and rain had meant that everything (including things we. Planted) had shot up. . Being care...

A Window into 2i's World: April 2009
http://cdnpyp2il.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
A Window into 2i's World. Exciting proposal put to us the other day. Amelia’s mum has been writing a book for children. It is a book about children’s rights; specifically the right of all children to have somewhere safe to live with their family. It is called Joe’s House. This is what the front cover of the book will look like (the book has not yet been published). The book tells of Millie (that’s Amelia! In the book (and yes, in real life too! It had words, but no pictures. Hmm! As I said at the s...

A Window into 2i's World: Pass it on…..

A Window into 2i's World. Pass it on…. We learned a new game today. In art! 160; Do you want us to teach. 160; how to play? 160; Well, you need a few friends, each with one long, narrow strip of paper, a paintbrush…. First, think of a shape that you can paint; it needs to be one that you can repeat, so not too complicated. A diamond would work really well. Paint your chosen shape, using your chosen colour, at one end of your strip of paper. Your friends will all be doing the same with. Game  ...

A Window into 2i's World: My favourite patterns
http://class2ipregny.blogspot.com/2009/12/my-favourite-patterns.html
A Window into 2i's World. Daniel arrived at school on Thursday clutching a very fancy woven briefcase. A very fancy woven briefcase, with a very fancy ‘criss-cross’ pattern. If you look closely, you should be able to spot how the pattern repeats. Even if at first glance it looks quite complicated. But that was not all. Inside the woven briefcase (amongst a. 160; This too had a ‘criss-cross’ pattern, a bit like a checkerboard. Can you spot how the patterns are the same? Pattern.’ She ...160; Enakshi...

A blog about the goings on in a classroom of 5 and 6 year olds (with some pretty cool photos). Wednesday, 29 February 2012. Our first ‘new unit’ activity involved a bit of brainstorming. We asked two questions. What is a story? Why do people tell stories? Here is what we thought of in answer to the first question…. 8216;a story is when you read a book’. 8216;the author writes the book ‘. 8216;some books don’t have words’. 8216;a story has pictures’. 8216;the author invents the story’. And act out stories.

Yanis wanted to read to us. 8216;In our family,’ he read, ‘we have good days - and bad days.’. And do you know what? It’s the same at school. In our school we have good days - and bad days. But we are working really hard (especially so during this unit of inquiry) to make sure that we have many more good days than bad days. I wonder; if.

A blog about the goings on in a classroom of 5 and 6 year olds (with some pretty cool photos). Thursday, 29 September 2011. In the style of one of the great masters - picasso. Take a look at this painting. Artist Picasso. It is a painting of his son Paul, when he was a small boy. A small boy of about your age, actually! And now look at this painting. This too was painted by Picasso. It is an (of-not-on) self-portrait. I wonder. What are the differences between the two paintings? Are using a mirror. Stop ...

School, where or who would you go to to get it solved? Well of course it depends on the problem. In. School, you would probably. You would almost certainly ask one of the assistants on duty outside.
