This week, we have been learning about Sikhism! We have thought about the 5Ks, core values and about why Sikhs meditate. We know Sikhs meditate to feel close to God and have discussed how meditation helps people feel peaceful and calm inside. We also know meditating and taking deep breaths can help us with big emotions. Ask us all about it!
We paired up to read books in the classroom.
We learnt about how exercise can keep our minds and bodies healthy. Then we choreographed some dance routines to present to the class. Year 2 has some good moves!
If you have any newspapers, please bring them in by Monday! We will be using them for our Art to Start!
Thank you! :)
Please find attached the spellings for this week. We are practising the year 2 common exception words. We will be practising these in school and children will be tested on Friday 6th June.
Today, we planted sunflowers!
We had the best time at Viking Games! Ask us all about it!
Year 2 really enjoyed having a look at different seeds and bulbs on Friday afternoon, learning where they are from and whether humans eat them! It was lots of fun exploring what they looked, smelt and felt like and comparing appearances. We even planted our own sunflowers! Ask us all about it!
Our Year 2 classes had a splash-tastic time this morning exploring capacity and volume outside! Using water and all sorts of measuring containers, the kids compared, poured, and read scales in millilitres like pros. They loved guessing which containers held a greater capacity and then finding out for themselves —plus, who doesn’t enjoy some fun water play?
To kick start our new book "Beegu", we investigated a crash landing in the playground. We heard a strange crashing sound, and discovered a mysterious glittery trail. It led us all the way to the playground where we saw a broken spaceship. We were so excited to find a little yellow ear peaking out of the spaceship, and we have written some INCREDIBLE recounts of the event. We cannot wait to do more writing about Beegu!
This week's spelling will be handed out on Friday 16th May. Children can bring these in on Friday 23rd of May in exchange for house points. They will be tested on this Friday. Please find attached the spellings below.
