Y2 HALF TERM 5

Planting Bulbs

In computing, we have learned how to design a scene with a background and sprites using 2Code. We know how to make our sprites move or talk when a button is pressed or they are clicked and we know how to create a collision detection!

Look at how well our bulbs have been growing!

We water them regularly, kept them inside at night when it was frosty and make sure they are out in the sunlight all day!

What do you think they'll look like when they flower?

In Computing we used the app 2Calculate to make a Magic Square! This is Samuel's completed square - what do you notice about the totals?

Today we looked at missing box problems. We worked out how to find that missing number by 'balancing' the scales!

2M have completed their DT project of making a Fairy Tale puppet! They have designed their puppet, thinking about what they would need to complete their designs. Each child has practiced different joining techniques including using a glue gun and sewing. The children cut the felt carefully after they had created paper templates to complete their t-shirt design. They painted the spoon carefully to create their face and made their spoon stay in their puppet by using a glue gun to attach a lolly stick. They are all very proud of their designs!

See below for our designs, including our evaluations of our puppets.

We are published poets!

Back in the spring term, some of us took part in the Poetry Safari poem competition and some of us had our poems chosen to be published!

Our books arrived today and we're so proud!
