Year 2

Class 5 have been looking at 2D shapes in Maths.

We used art straws and play dough to create our own 2D shapes.

Class 5 have been looking at the book ‘The paper bag princess’ as part of our English lessons. 

We have been writing sentences to describe using the conjunction ‘and’ to describe the main character Elizabeth.

Class 5 have been writing sentences to describe a castle using the conjunction ‘and’. 

Children have really enjoyed their music lessons and learning the song Music In My Soul. 

Look at their fantastic performance!

Children in class 5 have been looking at partitioning different numbers to 100. 

They have used base 10 and part whole models to look at different ways a number can be partitioned. 

Class 6 have been working hard on their computing skills. 3 weeks in and most pupils can log on independently.

Pupils have been learning to use shift to create capital letters, use space bar once for a finger space, find a full stop as well as finding all the letters they need for their words…

Class 6 have been learning about place value in maths. 

They took a number, partitioned it into tens and ones before adding it back together again. They enjoyed practically finding the amount of tens they needed and counting in tens, before counting on. 

Super work class 6. 

Class 6 have been learning about Leeds and the buildings within it.

They looked at some buildings, thought about what they might be and when they might have been built. They then put them into a timeline.

Good team work class 6. 

Class 6 have worked very hard in computing creating PowerPoints about Sealife. They have learnt how to stay safe on the internet, how to report concerns and how to search on the internet safely.

They generated the questions they wanted to write about, found the answers, copied pictures to go…

Class 6 learnt about weaving through the artwork of Lucy Poskitt, experimented using barring techniques and learnt how to dye material to create a sea texture. 

The children then learnt about repeating weaving patterns, before experimenting and practising the art of weaving. 

The children…

They all had a brilliant time playing in the sand, building sandcastles and digging holes.

Congratulations to everyone who took part. They came in first place beating 8 of the local schools.

There were some fantastic displays on the track in the warm heat.

Well done!
