Year 2 Newsletter

In year 2 this week we have been very busy with our learning across many subjects. 

We have been celebrating The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. Learning all about Queen Elizabeth and how she ascended to the throne. We designed and made our own crowns and wore them during our jubilee picnic. Mrs Price held a special assembly commemorating the Queen and picked a child with an amazing crown to come and be coronated! 

We have been busy in writing this week focusing on colour themed poetry, learning how to describe colours through our senses. To help us with this, we had an experience day, where we went into different classrooms each themed with its own colour, upon entering each room we immersed ourselves into the colour - thinking about how the colour made us feel, how it felt and describing the other senses which we were then able to use for our poetry writing.

In our religious and world views lessons we have been learning all about Islam, with this terms focus being on Ramadan and the five pillars of Islam. We learned what these pillars were and why they are important to Muslim people. We then thought about rules important to us and imagined making our own five fundamental pillars that would help us to become better people.
