Year 2

 Welcome to Year 2 with Miss Jenkins, Miss Gibbons, Miss Marshall and Miss Moya!

Autumn 1

English

Towards the end of the half-term we have been writing our own acrostic poems themed around Bonfire Night. We have thought about adjectives we could use to describe Bonfire Night and used punctuation to show expression in our poems. When we had finished our poems we performed them to Year 1.

Geography

In Geography we have been learning about Land and Sea. We have learnt that the UK is part of the world and the world is split into seven continents and five oceans. To solidify our knowledge we made our own globes to take home.

Art

In Art we have been exploring colour mixing and texture to make a collage. We have looked at the artist Romare Bearden and taken inspiration in our own work by using lots of different materials and adding texture and detail. We followed our term theme of 'Land and Sea' and created collages of the beach.

Religious Education

In our R.E. topic, we have been learning about what it feels like to be chosen by God. We listened to the story of The Lost Sheep and created our own sheep.

Maths

In Maths we have been learning about Place Value. We have been using base ten to understand our tens and ones with numbers up to 100.
