This Week in Year Two

A super busy week in Year Two this week. We have worked really hard and are settled into our new routines now. Inspired by “Here We are – Notes for Living on Planet Earth” by Oliver Jeffers. We painted self portraits and reflected on our uniqueness. We explored the outdoors and managed to find most of the things listed on our scavenger hunt shopping lists. We wrote letters to tell an alien visitor about ourselves and our wonderful world. We made leaflets to explain about the features of our world.

It was lovely to see the children using the new playground markings to create some new games.

In RE we are learning about “Chosen People” and this week we have learned about Moses. We listened to stories about his childhood and what happened when God spoke to him.

In Science we learned about the amount of sugar in different soft drinks and were amazed at the number of teaspoons of sugar some of them contained. We decided that water is definitely the best choice!
