This week, the children in Year 2 finished their Maths unit of addition and subtraction and swiftly moved on to identifying common 2D and 3D shapes. In English, the class carried out a thorough research on Emperor Penguins before writing up the first 3 paragraphs of their information booklets, explaining details about the animals’ look, […]
Year 2 enjoyed a very active week. On Monday the children moved on in their Gymnastics PE unit and learnt about different ways to travel, thinking about speed and levels. On Wednesday, they further consolidated that learning by revising their individual and later pair balances, distinguishing between them as patch and point. In Science this […]
Happy New Year and welcome back! It has been lovely to see the children after the Christmas holidays and hear how grateful they were for their experiences and presents. The children reflected on their favourite memories by filling their ‘Jars’, which we have displayed on our classroom door. We started new units in many subjects […]
The last week of the Autumn Term has been a busy one in all classes, Year 2 no exception! On Monday, we had a great time at the Panto, watching Aladdin. Thank you for Freddy’s, Fiona’s and Jacob’s mummy for your support. On Wednesday, we enjoyed a lovely Christmas lunch: before watching some amazing performances […]
What a week for the children in Year 2! Super well done for your amazing Nativity play on Tuesday AND Wednesday! Your performance was brilliant and it has been wonderful to watch you so animated and happy on stage. All your hard work during the rehearsals was worth it in the end! I couldn’t be […]
Well done for another busy week, Year 2! In Maths, we consolidated our 2nd strategy for addition, ‘Think 10’, before moving on to adding 3 numbers and adding to the next ten. In English, we have worked towards a list poem using expanded noun phrases for a chosen colour as part of our ‘The day […]
The children in Year 2 had a busy week with a focus on rehearsals for our Nativity production later in December. In English, the class completed their third big write, a letter of complaint as a classroom item- such as a sharpener, a rubber or the carpet- giving reasons for their upset, using conjunctions and […]
The children in Year 2 this week wrote informal letters as Duncan to one of the Crayons from our class book, The day the Crayons quit, applying conjunctions and persuasive words/phrases. They also edited for punctuation including apostrophes for omission and contraction. In Maths, we used BBC’s Number block song-Ten again- to recall number bonds […]
This week has been anti-bullying week and the children in Year 2 have learnt about the importance of ‘Choosing Respect’. The class completed many activities, such as role playing behaviour types using scenario cards and making a pledge demonstrating their understanding of respect. They also sorted scenarios into behaviour types and gained understanding of ‘joking, […]
Welcome to the second half of the autumn term! It was lovely to see the children return well rested and ready to learn. In English, the class first edited and then published their second big writing based on our class book, Ravi’s Roar. The stories read really well clearly showing that the children have put […]
