Week ending 27.5.2016

This week Year 2 have been looking at the life and work of the artist Claude Monet. The children have had the opportunity to paint some of Monet's artworks in an impressionistic way. We're really happy with how the paintings are turning out and look forward to showing you them when we use them to create a display on our classroom walls. The children have also been continuing their Topic work looking at flowers and insects which they are really enjoying. It has been a very long and tiring term for everyone in Year 2 and we hope you all have a lovely holiday in the half-term break. 

Week ending 13.5.16

This week Year 2 have been continuing their SATs with many of the students completing their Maths tests over the last few days. Although it has been a tough time for the students both myself and Mrs Prophet have been really impressed by the amount of effort and concentration the children have shown of the last few weeks. Friday sees a welcome day of fun activities designed to help the children celebrate the Queen's 90th birthday and I'm sure the children will really enjoy this.

In Maths, the children have been learning about how to tell the time including half past, quarter to and quarter past and also 5 minute intervals. In English, the children have been looking at the possessive apostrophe and description with some of the year writing Goldilocks part 2 and some writing a letter from Daddy Bear!
