A visit from the London Fire Brigade

Year 2 and Year 5 had a visit from the London Fire Brigade this afternoon. The children learnt how to prevent fire and how to stay safe if there was a fire at school or at home.

The Princess and the Pea

This week Year 2 have been reading The Princess and the Pea. The children worked collaboratively to create some beautiful collage paper for the mattresses. The next step was to arrange the ‘mattresses’ and finally add a princess at the top (and of course the all important pea!)

Keeping fit in Y2

We have been thinking about how to stay fit in Year 2. This afternoon we challenged ourselves to do as many star jumps, laps of the cage and pencil jumps as we could. We recorded our data in tables and then created bar charts on the iPads when we got back to class!

Division with remainders in Y2

In Maths this week Year two have been dividing with remainders. We started by using matchsticks to make triangles, squares, pentagons and octagons. “8 divided into 5 is 1 remainder 3” Today we imagined we were planting seeds equally between pots.

Skittles Maths in Y2

This morning in Maths, Year 2 were split into pairs and given some skittles. They used them to create tally charts and bar graphs. The children then used the data they had created to answer questions. Well done Year 2 for a brilliant start to the summer term!

Pyjama Party!

To celebrate finishing our story ‘The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark,’ Year 2 had a pyjama party. We had a treasure hunt, drank hot chocolate and played games 🙂
