Year 2

English in Year 2

Year 2 children have been enjoying learning about Paddington Bear so far this term. They have been busy writing postcards and letters to Aunt Lucy in the role of Paddington Bear. Last week, they made Paddington's favourite food- marmalade sandwiches and even enjoyed eating them afterwards! 

The children also came up with their own ideas for a new story and have all written an exciting and funny adventure for this much loved bear!

Over the next few weeks, they will be looking at the book 'Dear Greenpeace' and thinking about the environment. 

Science in Year 2

In science we have been looking at the features of living organisms. We have sorted and classified things from our school garden into 3 categories- things that are living, things that are non-living and things that were once living but now dead. 

We have also been looking at micro habitats and we went on a mini-beast hunt in the garden. We recorded our findings and thought about reasons why they like their habitat. 

Telling the Time

We are learning to tell the time using analogue and digital formats. We are aiming to be able to read the time to 5 minute intervals. This game is a great way to work on it at home.
