Believe, Achieve, Succeed

                                 Year 2

'Healthy Body, Healthy Mind' Week 

Letter Writing

In English, Year 2 have been learning how to write formal and persuasive letters. They have covered the different features of a letter and how it should be structured. The focus of the letters is to ask our Headteacher – Ms Shah – if we are allowed to get 2 Guinea pigs as class pets. The children have been doing lots of learning about Guinea pigs, to ensure their letters can be as persuasive as possible.

Tadpoles

As part of our science focus on 'Living Things and Their Habitats', we looked into life cycles. To get a visualisation of a cycle, we got some class tadpoles. We watched them grow into froglets and a few into little frogs, this was very beneficial for Year 2.

We all had lots of fun celebrating!

Year 2 had lots of fun creating cars for our whole school 'create a car' competition. We used different materials to make our cars and tested them out to see which travelled the furthest distance. We were DELIGHTED to win! Our winning car travelled over 5metres! We were all excited to receive our prize of hot chocolate and marshmallows... it was delicious! Well done Year 2!

Year 2 got to experince a ZOO2U visit to school.

The children saw many different animals and learnt about their habitats and what food they enjoyed eating!

Year 2 got to interact with Duprasi Gerbils, an African Pigmy hedgehog, an African Giant Milipede, a Bearded Dragon and a Barn Owl. We had so much fun learning all about them!

As part of Year 2's DT lesson we designed, then made healthy wraps. The children really enjoyed creating delicious wraps, which they took home to enjoy!
