Year 2 have been learning that all animals have offspring that grow and change into
adult animals. They have observed differnt lifecycles. A life cycle shows each stage of a plant or animals life. They know that all animals need water, food and air to survive and the offspring of an animal does not always look like the adult. They are excited to see how our class tadpoles change over time.
Year 2 have been using commands to create different algorithms. They used an algorithm to program a sequence on a floor robot.
Year 2 had a fabulous time during our Freddy Fit session. They had the opportunity to learn about a balanced diet and practised their hula hoop skills.
Year 2 had a great time looking after our school environment and taking part in the Great British Spring Clean, they even rescued a bumble bee!
Today was No Pens Day! That meant that for one whole day we had to put our pens down and think of new and innovative ways to communicate. First we started with reading. Then in English we put actions to our recount text. In maths we became times tables rockstars and in the afternoon we did lots of creative activities. All without a pen in sight!
Year 2 had a fabulous time during science week. They explored sand timers and tried to make a sand timer that would flow for exactly one minute. They discovered that the sand grains needed to flow continuously, so they constructed a funnel to allow this. They demonstrated lots of scientific enquiry skills. What a bunch of super scientists you are Year 2M!
Year 2 had a wonderful morning in forest school. They explored magic potions, built dens and even went on a leaf hunt! In PSHE we are learning about how to keep healthy and active, so we talked about how we can keep active during our forest school sessions.
Year 2 had a great day celebrating World Book Day. The children explored lots of books, discussed their favourite authors and dressed up as their favourite book character.
This week 2M have been celebrating children’s mental health week by starting the day with mindful activities.
Year 2 had a great time on their shape safari with Explore Learning.
