This week in the classroom

Friday 19th September 

This week Year 2 have had lots of fun in both Music and Art. In Art this week we have been exploring different textures using different drawing materials such as: Charcoal, Pastels, Chalks and Graphite. In Music we have been learning the 'Goldilocks and The Three Bears' song and have been learning about pitch and beat and trying to keep in timing with the song using a range of different musical instruments. 

In Maths we have finished off our work on adding and subtracting multipules of 10 and have used many images and models to support this work, for example using number lines, bar models and part-part whole models. 

In writing we have innovated the story of The Three Billy Goats to begin to make it our own and have been doing lots of practice writing sentences.

In Science we have continued exploring what things around us of 'Alive' 'Dead' and were 'Never Alive' and have began to group objects around the classroom e.g. plants, books, teddies, playing cubes. 

Friday 12th September

Year 2 have had a fantastic week in the classroom this week. We have had lots of fun in music exploring rhythm and timing and have gotten out the drums and triangles to try and keep to the beat of the Goldilocks song. In Maths this week we have spent time at looking at multiples of 10 and using the deines stick and cubes to support our learning of adding and subtracting 10. In Writing this week we have been practising the story The Three Billy Goats Gruff and have been writing sentences based on this story. In History we have been delving into pictures of factories in the 1800’s and seeing how they were very different to what factories look like now.
