This term, class 2H have explored successful women in history. The children also did their own research on a wonderful woman of their choice. On Friday, 11th July, the children had the opportunity to showcase their work including their artwork inspired by Frida Kahlo. It was wonderful to see so many families attending to celebrate their child’s achievements. A great afternoon in spite of the heatwave!
Class 2H had the opportunity to spend two days with their new teacher. They had fun spending time with Mrs Harbour and exploring their new classroom.
The class have started to add paint to self portraits they have drawn. They are not complete yet but the class has made a great start.
Today, class 2H visited Lotherton Hall with the rest of year 2. Staff and family volunteers accompanied the pupils on a very hot day! The children explored the grounds and spotted some red deers and they spent some time observing a variety of animals. The children also met Florence Nightingale who told them about her interesting life as a nurse. A great day out!
In science, the pupils explored how materials can change their shape. The children had fun using play dough to investigate this.
This week was Mental Health Week. In recognition of this important event, the pupils came to school (on Thursday) wearing green. The children also participated in an emoji trail where they had to spot the escaped emojis. 2H spent some time in the sunshine observing and drawing plants using a pen. Sadly, the class said goodbye to Heidi and to Miss Dalliday (trainee teacher). As the summer 1 term ends, the final term will soon be approaching. Happy holidays 2H!
This week, class 2H went for a local walk to the library. On the way, they used their mapping skills to add symbols on a map of human and physical features that they spotted. The children had a wonderful time at the library and shared with the librarian the books they love reading.
This week, in science, the pupils have been exploring different seeds and have practised sorting them by either size or colour. The children also used soil and water to plant a bean. Happy Planting!
The first week, after the Easter break, the children were in school for four busy days. The children used maths resources to practise finding a third. They also started their new science topic on plants. They explored and participated in observational drawings of different plants on the school grounds.
