Celebrating our Learning
Spring 1 term
Despite many of us learning from home this half term we had a fantastic time learning all about the Wild West.
We made designed, made, tested and evaluated teepees as part of our DT lessons. We wanted to make sure we created a home that would withstand strong winds.
We also followed a cornbread recipe in DT and the children in school and at home really enjoyed making these delicious Native American treats!
We learnt so much new vocabulary during this topic such as breechcloth, moccasins, chaps, nomadic and omnivore. We wonder if you know what these mean?
Here are some photos of us enjoying our Spring 1 learning journey.
Autumn 2 term
Our Autumn 1 learning journey in Year 2 was When You Wish Upon a Star. We learnt about all things Disney!
In Art we created clay apples based on our class story Snow White. Below are some photos of our completed apples which looked amazing!
In Geography we continued our map skills. We located the continents and found out which continent our favourite Disney movies were filmed in. We then learnt about the weather in each of these continents and used vocabulary such as 'humid' and 'mild'.
In Music we listened to music taken from Disney movies and thought the emotions we felt when listening. The children came up with some lovely ideas for how particular music made them feel and events it reminded them of.
Christmas celebrations
We had a wonderful time celebrating Christmas in Year 2. We took part in the Santa Dash for Rotherham Hospice. We each received a Santa hat and enjoyed seeing our teachers dressed as Father Christmas! We also wore our Christmas jumpers to raise money for Save the Children. This was a very exciting day!
