We combined art and history to form the story on our mirror plates. These plates originated from Mexico, they are used to decorate both inside and outside of homes. We researched traditional Mayan and Aztec art and used ideas for the plate. We designed the plates, used tinfoil for the centre piece and etched onto the foil with felt pens. Every plate tells a story.
This week, Year 2 have been focusing on length.
We have been learning to measure using millimetres (mm) and centimetres (cm) and metres (m).
We have explored many everyday objects and estimated their length. Then we checked our estimations by measuring them accurately. We also made flags for our outside area following careful instructions about measurement. 
Thanks to the sunshine, we enjoyed some time outside this week. The children were able to experience new things and interact with some of our Early Years children. The water play was very popular, which caused a few sad faces when it was time to come inside.
Again song time was enjoyed by all. This week we danced the morning away to ‘Twinkle Twinkle’ and ‘If you’re Happy and You Know it’.
Come and join the fun Wednesdays, 9.00am – 10.00am, St Clement’s School Hall.
This week, we had session two of our six week, Talking Tips program.
Parents worked well building their children’s confidence, language, eye contact and interaction.
The families took part in a range of activities that encouraged and promoted conversation, vocabulary and above all fun!
Year 2 have worked incredibly hard to prepare for there SATs tests so we decided to have a party to celebrate all of our hard work.
There was music, dancing, games and lots of delicious food! We had such a great time dancing outside in the sunshine.
Miss Smith, Miss Shryane and Miss Akhtar are incredibly proud of all the effort that was put in.
Well done Year 2!
In Science, we have been exploring plants and trees. We have learnt all about evergreen and deciduous trees. We have been looking at lots of different trees and deciding whether the trees are evergreen or deciduous trees. We went on a tree hunt to find out which trees we have in our school site. Which trees can you see?
