We would like to introduce our Year 2 Team.
As we all settle into Year 2 routines, here is some important information for you to be aware of.
Children will enter the Year 2 indoor area independently. Doors open at 8.40am and will close at 8.50am.
If you need to speak to your child’s teacher, there will be a member of staff at our Year 2 door every morning. Please speak to them and we will be able to pass on messages or call on your child’s own teacher.
PE days are Monday and Thursday.
Children will need indoor and outdoor kit including plimsolls and trainers, and their house t-shirt (they are available at the office if a replacement is needed).
No jewellery to be worn on P.E days (including earrings, which must not be plastered or taped over).
Thank you for your continued support.
Year 2 teachers
Up, up and away! Our learning in Year 2 has taken off with great speed, from learning about kites in DT to the very first flight in a hot air balloon in History. Our wonderful learners are looking forward to designing and making their own kites and learning about the very first aeroplane flight! Is there anyone in your family who remembers the moon landing? One small step for man... one giant leap for mankind.
We have been learning all about materials and their uses in Science this term.
We have thought a lot about how suitable certain materials are for the job at hand. We then learned about how the same materials can be used for different things by changing the shape of the material. We changed the shape of old crayons that were not being used anymore. We sorted the crayons into colours, peeled the paper away and bashed, banged, crushed and crumbled them with hammers. Then we sprinkled them into Lego shaped moulds and heated them in the microwave. This changed the shape into Lego Crayons!We think they look great and we have re-used the old wax crayons for a new purpose!
