Welcome to Year 2! We have been enjoying getting to know the children and they have all settled really well.
We have been exploring number bonds to 10 and 20 and seeing how many different ways we can show this. The children have enjoyed showing us what they know. Some have even challenged themselves with a mini-research project investigating 100.
The children have written poems about bubbles after we watched a video about a child who went off on an adventure. You might like to watch the video at home. The children enjoyed discussing and writing about where they would visit on their magic bubble and what they would see too.
We have enjoyed creating some self portraits ready to display in the classroom.
We enjoyed investigating bulbs which are ready for growing. We looked at a bulb and discussed what it might be, the children had lots of ideas including garlic and onions! We have now planted the bulbs and are excited to watch them grow – they are already starting to change.
The children have had their first PE session with Mr Senior and enjoyed playing inside ball games. They also had their first session with Mr Baker this term where they were clapping rhythmic patterns and using these to create their own music.
