Getting into Routine
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 2 Class Blog
This week has been the children's first full week with all their lessons! It's been a busy one but there has been lots of fun and learning. They have started their DT topic on fairground rides, got engrossed in James and the Giant Peach and had lots of practical maths, creating and partitioning numbers to 100.
Welcome to Year 2!

It’s been a great first week in Year 2! The children have all seemed excited to be back and have got stuck in with all their new learning!
We have been looking at a book called The Planet in a Pickle Jar, which is all about preserving our favourite things so they never disappear and our week’s learning culminated in us making our own pickle jars to save the world this afternoon! It was lovely to see so many creative ideas - trees, weather, animals, food - see for yourselves below!
We have also been working practically in maths, making numbers to 100 with various apparatus, counting in groups of 10 to help us count more quickly and easily.
Well done, Year 2! Have a lovely weekend ready for more next week!
Money challenge!
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 2 Class Blog
In PSHE we have been learning about money and jobs. We had an additional challenge to work out the total if we had one of each note and coin.
We spent time using the money resources in class and working systematically to find the answer.
Alfresco Learning Workshop

We had such a fantastic morning with Alfresco Learning to round off our topic about Neil Armstrong. The workshop had elements of history, science and maths with the focus being outdoor learning. Watching our rockets fly was a WOW moment! So much fun, learning and awe and wonder!

Year 2 stayed together for some time in the conservation area on Wednesday this week. We spent time working in teams to build a shelter and then taking notice of our surroundings and creating these beautiful watercolour paintings. It was a lovely afternoon in the shade outside.
