Well we have reached the end of another half term. I can't believe that the next will be the last!
The children have continued to enjoy writing using the book 'Handa's Surprise' as a stimulus. This week we have written some recounts of her journey. The children have worked hard to include words with our Year 2 suffixes.
In maths we have done some work on capacity. We have been comparing units of measure. We have also continued to work on Times Tables.
In science we have been learning about the 3 basic needs of animals. The children made some survival guides for a pet of their choice.
In geography, as part of our topic, we have been finding out about a typical school day for a child in rural Africa. The children thought carefully about the similarities and differences to their school day.
Yesterday the children had an afternoon of sculpture. We used marshmallows and spaghetti to create our own abstract sculptures in the style of Eva Rothschild. They showed great determination and managed not to eat any of the resources!
Have a fabulous half term and enjoy any Jubilee Celebrations that you might have planned.
