Treasure maps

As part of our pirate topic we have been learning about coordinates to help us use a map! We had fun deciding where to put our treasure. If you find one of our maps, remember – X marks the spot!

We followed an art tutorial to draw our very own pirate ships, we think they look great!

This half term we are thinking about diversity, we created a display to show that diversity is beautiful, we each designed a unique sea creature to add to our ocean to celebrate our individuality

Easter learning outdoors

In year two we had great fun on our Easter hunt. We found the sentences hidden outside in Easter envelopes. When we found the sentences, we put them in the right order to tell the story of Easter Sunday, and discussed why it means so much to Christians around the world.

2S Celebrate the Last Supper

Year two have been spending time learning about the Christian celebration of Easter. We have read all about Holy Week, and even got the chance to act out The Last Supper using pitta bread and blackcurrant. This really helped us to think about what Jesus meant when he said ‘This is my body’ and we have been learning about symbols of faith. We can’t wait to finish off learning about the story with an Easter egg hunt for information all about Easter Sunday and Jesus rising again!

This half term we made castles in DT and we tested out how long they would last under attack from a dragon!

It turns out cardboard castles do not last very long against fiery dragon breath (but we still had lots of fun!)

Children In Need 2020

We had a lovely art lesson in which we created Poppies for our SMSC display after learning about the importance of Remembrance Day
We are really proud of our artwork and we all tried our best, we think our display looks beautiful.
