Year 2

Launch day- 30.10.23

Year 2s’ new topic is Pole to Pole. We were so impressed with the quality and quantity of projects that we received after the half term. We were also impressed with the research the children had done to create their project which was evident when they spoke to the class. During the day we looked at the geography of the Arctic, the animals that lived there and how they survive. We then looked at a corresponding country, Kenya. We discussed the different landscapes found in Kenya and the animals that live there. We also started to look at animal habitats and why animals are found in one environment and not in others.

The children are really excited about this topic and have continued doing research at home and sharing this with the class.

Launch day- 6.09.23

First, the children shared their homework projects. We learnt about the many explorations we’ve all been on. Some of us shared some research about some famous explorers, too. We then learnt about some famous explorers, such as Christopher Columbus and Amelia Earhartt. We researched and created fact files about the various explorers. Additionally, Explorer Bear was going to be visiting the school on an expedition so we helped him in deciding what to pack and created a floor plan so he doesn't get lost! We had an awesome day!
