Spooktacular pictures created by our year 2s! Happy Halloween! ;)

We have been learning all about the signs of Autumn. We then used our senses to go on an Autumn walk and describe what we see, feel and hear. The children loved exploring the school grounds! We collected leaves, sticks and brought them back to explore in the classroom. 

We were very lucky to…

Today for computing, the Narwhals and Dolphins have worked together on their computing work! As you may remember Narwhals had a visitor who taught them how to use the app ‘Clips’, due to technical difficulties Dolphins did not get a chance to complete this. So today Narwhals have had the job of…

Today we read a story from the Hindu religion. We each had a different section to illustrate before putting them together to create a huge storyboard. Our drawings showed we understood the story and we were very proud of the results.

Today we used the laptops to practice changing, the font, letter size and the colour of our font.

Today in computing we used the programme word. We used the different tools to edit our writing changing the size, colour and style.

Today we were very lucky to get the chance to visit an art exhibition at the local church, the children saw a range of winning art pieces that had been inspired by things like whale bones and sound. The children were then very lucky because they got to create their own tile that had seeds mixed…

Today we had great fun, making dens!  We worked in teams to plan and build our dens. We had to think carefully about what would be the best location, what we needed, how to build it and what would offer us the most protection from the rain. 

Storm Babet hit us this week making it a little wet and windy to go outdoors so instead we had a craft session. We used conkers to make patterns and leaves to create hedgehogs. We enjoyed rolling the conkers to make patterns, do you like them?

The children worked in teams today to build a den, they had to think carefully about how they were going to build their den and what offered the most protection, if it rained. Super team work by all - well done!
