Materials walk and science week

We are all budding scientists in Year 2.

As part of our topic we went on a 'materials walk' and discovered why certain materials suit their purpose.
We have been exploring man made and natural materials.



Last week was science week and we enjoyed doing lots of exciting experiments.






Here we are learning about 'lift' using a hairdryer and a ball. Amazing!

RE week

Another busy week in Year 2. On Tuesday we went on a materials walk around the local area and used our detective skills to find out what different objects are made of and why.



On Wednesday we performed our Olympics dance to our parents who were delighted.



In RE this week we have been learning about places of worship. We researched the features of a mosque and visited St Aldhelm's church. Michael the Vicar let us explore and told us lots about his church and Christian worship.




We have been doing lots of drama in Literacy and learning about money and measures in numeracy.
