We started the day by looking at different European flags, identifying the colours and talking about some of the places that we, or our families have visited in Europe.

In the afternoon all of Year Two got together to learn some Dutch. Mrs Dunton had brought in some clogs, tulips and some traditional Dutch foods to talk about. We looked through the PowerPoint and listened to Mrs Dunton explaining it in Dutch.

We learnt a traditional Dutch rhyme about the King through which we could practice the colours red, white and blue in Dutch!

Here is our powerpoint if you would like to practice or have a look at home (it will open as a PDF) All about Holland

This week we made our Ferris Wheels.

Through determination, problem solving and lots of team work Year Two have shown that when they put their mind to something they can succeed. We were so impressed with their perseverance and patience today.

Fantastic results

Animals

This term Year 2 have been learning about animals and what they need to survive.

We had great fun making bird feeders to see which birds we could spot in our outdoor areas at school.

What birds can you identify as you walk to and from school, or in different environments at the weekends?

Term4

This term we are studying habitats around the world. The book we are looking at is Meerkat Mail, where Sunny the little meerkat finds his home too hot, too dry, and his family too big so he goes off to explore alternatives habitats to live.

We have linked our English to our Geography where we have been learning about the North and South Pole, and explored what would happen if Sunny moved somewhere cold! Science is learning about habitats too, which fits perfectly with our other topics this term.

Maths is all things money, so when you are out at the weekend please try and show your child some coins, and maybe even let them pay for something small too! Here are our Key Learning Facts for this term: T3 KIRFs y2

During this week we worked on our observational, sketching and collage skills.

The whole school looked at architecture as our theme for this year, while in Year Two we focused on Doors.

We began the week by going for a walk around New Romney to look at all of the different styles of doors we could find. The Children took photos of them, then it was back to school to sketch the different doors we had seen. We moved on to looking at artists, especially Henri Matisse and his approach to art. We created some artwork using his methods, looking at techniques, colours and shapes.

Our final piece was a door each, where the children used materials they’d collected at home and at school to recreate one of the doors we found on our walk.

The children did a fantastic job and we can’t wait to share them properly in a gallery format later in the term!

We are looking forward to seeing as many families as possible at our Mother’s Day service later at church.

The children have written some heartfelt prayers and have worked hard to create cards and pictures for you all.

Thank you mums, grans, nans and aunties for all your hard work in supporting your gorgeous children.

Here’s just a glimpse of some of the work they’ve been creating.

Last Thursday, 40 days after Easter Sunday, Years 2 and 3 went to the church and led the Ascension Service. The children did a great job and read and sang beautifully.

One of the songs, ‘I Love You’, they sang and signed.
