We celebrated all of our hard work and super learning during summer 1 by enjoying lollies on the field! Yummy!
We had so much fun during our dance-a-thon day! We also made our own jellyfish to help us breathe mindfully.
In our art lesson, we explored using different sketching techniques to make observational drawings of shells.
Year 2 spent the afternoon learning all about the life of David Attenborough and celebrating his 100th birthday. The children wrote a promise on how they would help protect the world and animals and then created a piece of artwork to celebrate different animals around the world.
We celebrated Earth day (22nd April) by learning all about human impact on the planet and how we can help to protect our world. We created our own leaflets to explain some ways we can take care of the world. We also made our own Earth handprints.
In our science lessons, we have been learning all about life cycles and how different animals develop. We looked closer at the life cycle of a frog and created our own representation of the frog’s life cycle.
The year 2 children all looked brilliant for their WW2 day. They enjoyed completing a range of activities including making jam sandwiches for a street party, designing a world war 2 medal and making a spitfire! The children were also very lucky to have the opportunity to observe some real items from WW2.
