Read MoreTeam A-M design 'useful' inventions!
Published 26/03/26, by Kiki AminThis week, we have been learning about significant inventors, including the Wright brothers and Caroline Haslett. Inspired by our learning, we partnered up and designed our own inventions that would make our everyday life easier! From creations that would feed our pets for us to pens that would read our minds and write for us, from robots to do jobs our adults ask us to do to portable machines that give us any snack we need when we are hungry, we had a lot of fun using our imagination to be 'inventors'! Ask us all about it!
Read MoreTeam A-M investigate division
Published 25/03/26, by AdminIn maths, Year 2 have started to explore division! We thought about what the division symbol means and about what division sentences represent – sharing equally! Then, we had a go at working out some division questions with our talk partners using counters and our steps! Grouping is much easier than we thought and we had lots of fun.

Read MoreTeam A-M explore significant artists!
Published 12/03/26, by Kiki AminThis week in Year 2, we have been learning about two significant artists, Minnie Evans and Henri Matisse. We explored Minnie Evans’ detailed drawings, noticing the repeating patterns, nature themes, and imaginative designs she used. The children created their own drawings inspired by her style, carefully adding shapes and patterns. We also looked at Henri Matisse, thinking about how his artwork changed over time. Check out our inspired and beautiful responses to our learning!
