Year 2's inquiry into living things and their habitats continued with a trip to Matfield Pond this week. The children were excited to explore the habitat and observe living things in their own environments. They each completed a sketch of the pond, focusing on the living things and how they interact with their environment. The children represented the school fantastically and thoroughly enjoyed the experience!

In other areas of their learning, Year 2 have used their knowledge of adjectives and nouns to form expanded noun phrases. Taking inspiration from the habitats they have been learning about, the children have written a description of an environment of their choice. These contained lots of adjectives and demonstrated the children's writing skills beautifully! Within Maths, the children have continued learning about place value, focusing on comparing objects and numbers, as well as estimating on a number line to 100. It has been a wonderful week of learning in Year 2!
