Year 2 have been reading The Smartest Giant in Town and have created their own George the scruffy giant and George the smart giant.
Year 2 have been finding out how to mix colours to make new ones.
As part of our topic 'Great Britons' we visited Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street.
It was time to harvest some of our salad! After, we washed and cut it so we could eat it. Our salad was delicious!
Year 2 are gardeners! We planted seeds in the playground garden so we can grow our own produce. We are looking after them and observing them as they grow. A gardener from Trees for Cities visited us. We learnt about trees and then we planted saplings in the playground.
The pirate Barnacle Bill came to our school!
We helped him by making maps of the world so that he could set sail to find his lost parrot. Do you know the names of the 5 oceans?
Polly Parrot had flown to Africa. We found out lots about this continent and then we wrote postcards from Polly to tell Barnacle Bill all about her adventures.
We had aaarrrrghmazing fun!
We made treasure maps to navigate pirates and help them find their treasure.
We designed and made our own textile prints.
Look at some of the artwork we created in the style of Martin Bulinya.
We read the Christmas story. Look at the display we made to retell the Nativity story.
We looked at paintings by the artist Picasso. Have you seen the portraits we created in our classrooms?
