Year 2 What We Are Learning

                                   


   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. 




                                   Science


 


This week the pupils conducted an experiment using

 a wide variety of materials. 

We wanted to discover whether the properties of the

 materials would change shape after we had twisted,

 bent and squeezed  them. We were pleased to see that 

most of our predictions came true!




Forest School

Mulberry class had a lovely morning around the fire on Tuesday. 

They toasted waffles and marshmallows, drank hot chocolate

 and helped to put the fire out at the end of the session.

 Everyone also made a forest school Christmas decoration 

from a wooden disc, a leaf star and some eco glitter. 

Have a great Christmas everyone.
