This week we have been developing a range of skills in Art. We tried to combine our drawing skills with our printing skills.

We discovered that the felt tips and water didn't work quite as well as we'd have hoped but we enjoyed finding out!

Year 2 have really enjoyed being out in the outdoor area lately. We have expecially enjoyed watching the birds who visit the area too.

Fruity Art!

Thank you for sending in such interesting fruits to explore!

Year 2 had a great day out today at Martin Mere!

We saw lots of different birds from all over the world.

We learnt all about Whooper swans and how they migrate from Iceland to stay at Martin Mere for the winter. They are getting ready to fly back there soon.

It has been a busy day!

Time to test them out!

Y2 become First Aiders!

Date: 11th Jan 2023 @ 4:34pm

This afternoon we took part in First Aid training with Andrea from Mini First Aid.

We learned how to call for help and what information we need to tell someone. Do you know your address including your postcode?

We know how to check if someone is breathing.

We had a go at basic CPR and also learned how to help someone who is choking.

We also learned how to put a patient into the recovery position. Can you show someone how to do this at home?

Jack and the Beanstalk!

We went on another Jack and the Beanstalk adventure today!

We took the cow to market, threw 'beans' out of the window and even climbed the beanstalk!

 

Smoothie tasting

Date: 17th Nov 2022 @ 11:11pm

We have a better idea of which fruits work well together.

Now we will be able to plan and design our own recipe before we make our own fruit smoothie!

Keith Haring Artwork

We had a visit from Penwortham's Fire and Rescue Service this afternoon.

We found out about staying safe and how to escape safely in the event of a fire. 

The children will be bringing home a reminder about fitting and checking your smoke alarm. I am sure they will tell you all how to check them weekly to make sure you all stay safe at home.

Fitness test!

Date: 8th Nov 2022 @ 10:00pm

We made a kick start to our theme with a fitness test! We had to do lots of shuttle runs, squats and speed bounces to see how many we could do in 30 seconds! We will see if we improve in a few weeks time!

We have been finding out about the impact of different exercises on our bodies in our Science lessons.

Fruit Tasting

Date: 8th Nov 2022 @ 9:56pm

We tasted different fruits so that we can think about the fruit we would like to put in our fruit smoothies.

It was a yummy afternoon!

Y2 Local Walk

We were really observant trying to notice what we could see, hear, smell and feel on our way around.
