Year 2 Blog Week 23

It has been another action-packed week for the Year 2 crew! This week was British Science Week and the theme was ‘Underground’. We launched into this theme with THE BIG QUESTION- What would be positive or negative if we lived underground? There was a lot of discussion and some very interesting answers. Negative – No WiFi! Positive – No more sunburn. Year 2 learnt about volcanoes and created their own clay models.

The children also researched animals that live underground and created some amazing invertebrate classification keys. We focused on earthworms – the world’s unsung heroes! The children really enjoyed finding and observing these wriggly creatures.

This week in tennis we were perfecting our serve. It is very important to keep your eye on the ball!

We finished the week with a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day celebration morning. It was lovely to see you all sharing in the maths learning activity with your child. Congratulations to Cian for completing the task first, revealing the leprechaun and collecting his gold!
