Year 2 Weekly Blog (21. 1. 22)

Date: 19th Jan 2022 @ 9:10am

This week, the children have continued to learn all about traditional tales, with a focus on using their artistic skills to draw some villainous characters! 

On Monday, they designed animal masks using template and black marker pens; we were very impressed with the unique array of designs they came up with

Throughout the week, they have also created wolf portraits using their sketching skills and charcoals.  They all look terrific and are now proudly being displayed in the school corridor outside the Year 2 classroom; we have already received lots of lovely compliments from teachers and children who have stopped to admire the artwork on show!

As well as using pen, pencils and paper to create works of art, the children have also been using computer software to create traditional tale stop motion animations; the children had to plan their short stop-motion film, think about which backdrop to use, which characters they wanted to 'animate', and then work in pairs to create their mini masterpieces!

In Maths, the children have finished their learning on measure and temperature and started to focus on fractions: learning about halfs, thirds and quarters

On Thursday, 2G had their Golden Ticket celebration, bringing in toys from home; all of the children had a nice time and the celebration afternoon was well deserved after a brilliant term before Christmas!

Enjoy your weekend and see you all on Monday!
