Year 2

Welcome to Year 2

2020- 21!

We are very excited here in year 2, to start the new academic year. Hopefully, there will be little disruption and we can get on and enjoy the year together.

We are looking forward to a really busy year ahead.

As the oldest children in key stage 1, we try to set a good example to the younger children. We are always busy in class, where lots of creative and fun learning takes place during all our lessons. We are always encouraged to be happy, work hard and treat each other with kindness as Jesus taught us.

In The Garden

We love playing and working in our garden! It is great fun to find things outside and create a collage with it. Some of us enjoy looking for worms, ladybirds and other creepy-crawlies!

Fractions

We have been learning how to find half and a quarter of a number. We know now that to find half we have to share equally into 2 groups and to find a quarter we share into 4 equal groups.

Art- Printing

2CR and 2JT are creating a tapestry. We worked hard on preparing our tiles for printing. Can you guess what the theme is?

Advent Craft

PE - Gymnastics

D and T Project

Snails!

Meet Sam and Syl! They are our African Snails that we are learning to look after. They have grown so much already since the beginning of term. We love them!

Diwali - Artwork

Year 2 have looked at the celebration of Diwali. They worked hard to complete Rangoli patterns and designed and made their own Diwali lamps.

History - Ancient Egypt

Year 2 have been learning about Ancient Egypt. We have enjoyed discovering what was found in Tutankhamun’s tomb by Howard Carter in 1922. We also had great fun learning about what life was like in Ancient Egypt and using hieroglyphics to write our names.
