This week in Year 2
English
This week we wrote about Flat Stanley – the boy who was flattened by a picture! We focused on using adjectives and similes to make our sentences more exciting.
Maths
In maths, we learnt about money. We made different amounts using different coins, and added two amounts together to make a total.
RE
In RE, we discussed how we should be thankful to God for all he does for us. We then wrote a beautiful prayer about thanking and praising God.
History
We learnt about explorers in history this week focusing on Charles Darwin and Neil Armstrong. We ‘hot seated’ different children and came up with super questions for these two explorers.
Forest School
All of have now boiled water in the Kelly Kettle to make noodles.
We have also participated in imaginative play showing great teamwork, resilience and perseverance.
We also practised our knotting skills when making a forest eye and other items using sticks, wool, pipe cleaners, wire and ribbon.
Have a lovely weekend.
