Year 2 What we Are Learning

 

Science

This week in Science we looked at living

things and their habitats. We learnt

about animals and how they adapt to their habitat.

Adapting means doing things to survive.

We learnt about Lions, Reindeer, Polar

Bears and Leopard Seals. Our task was to

learn facts of how Leopard Seals have

adapted to the freezing cold conditions

they live in and write them down. 



                           Literacy

This week, the children wrote letters in the

role of Egg box Dragon to their friends.

They informed their friends about the very

eventful  journey to  Buckingham Palace,

how difficult it was to find the lost diamond,

the grandeur of the visiting royalty, the

breathtaking beauty of the palace and scrumptious meal.


Maths

This week, pupils have focused on lines of

symmetry and key vocabulary. They can

identify whether a shape is symmetrical

or not based on the definition of a symmetry.

Also, they have learnt to use lines of symmetry

to complete a shape. Furthermore, we have

focused on counting the edges, faces and

vertices of 3D shapes.

Mulberry class had a great start to the session taking on their ‘love our school’ jobs. They were all helpful in looking after their environment. We played with water today, making nature shapes by spraying. We used water colour pencils to make pictures and then sprayed and smudged them to make them like paint. Boats were made and experiments of items that float and sink. Well done to Mulberry class for lots of creative ideas.
