We are really excited to welcome you back to school in year 2! We cannot wait to share our learning and new understanding of skills. Above are some pictures of our year 2 area.

Numbots/TTRS Day

Recently, we dressed up as a robot or rockstar for our Numbots/Times table rock star day. We use Numbots/TTRS at school and at home to develop our understanding of number and to help support the learning of times tables. Everyone looked amazing and some of us even made our own costumes! 

DT project

As part of our DT topic this term, we have been looking at how to create a strong and stable structure. We had to use our pre-taught knowledge of how to join materials together, to be able to make a boat that could stay afloat on water. This linked to our English and reading sessions as our book of the week was lost and found. The boat we made in groups had to be able to hold the penguin and get him to the south pole safely.

Science - germination experiment

As part of our plants topic, we have been learning about seeds and the process of germination. We conducted an experiment to see the stages of germination and the conditions needed for a seed to grow. We learnt that a plant needs water, sunlight and the correct temperature. We put runner beans into a plastic zip up bag and put wet paper towels inside. We then placed the bags on a window where they would receive sunlight. After our half term, we came back to see some wonderful results that our runner bean seeds had grown!
