Year 2 had an amazing time at The Hawk and Owl Trust. It supported their science learning around habitats and animals. During the day, the children had the opportunity for pond dipping, building minibeast habitats, sketching wildlife and going on a wildlife walk. The year 2 children all had the best day although a little hot
Year 2 had so much fun during their WW2 day spent at Time and Tide museum. They used pretend bayonets to hit Hitler and learnt how to march and be a Homeguard. Then, they got to spend time in a WW2 shop learning how to ration as a shop keeper by weighing out the products. Finally, they spent time with Mrs Day visiting her house and learning how she makes do and mends!
The children in year 2 have been really inquisitive when learning about World War 2. They completed a project where they created a background and then props that would move to replicate a WW2 scene. Then, using I-Pads, the children created their own short film using stop motion. Look at some of the amazing examples!
The children are really enjoying exploring poetry this half term. At the moment, they are reading poems about food and creating their own ideas ready to write their own food poems. Look how much fun they had exploring and describing the feel of spaghetti!
The year 2 children are really enjoying learning all about WW2. They were excited to take a walk through town to see a real Pillbox near Dereham train station. When they returned to school, they made their very own 3D Pillbox.
Year 2 have had so much fun for world book day, look at our amazing outfits!
Year 2 children really enjoyed their writing café where they had the chance to take part in spelling, handwriting and sentence building activities. The children played Boggle and Jenga with year 2 common exception words. They explored using different tools to write into sand and used chalk to practice their handwriting on the playground. The children also challenged themselves to add suffixes to root words! They were all super stars at practicing their writing skills, well done year 2!
