What a wonderful start to Year 2 we have had! The children have settled in so well and are ready to go!
RE
In RE lessons we have learnt about Creation and Covenant following The Vine and the Branches topics. We have learnt about the story of Noah, focusing on Gods promise with Noah and with all creatures. We are also exploring the psalms and what stewardship means. We are learning what happens at the Sacrament of Baptism and the Annunciation to Mary.
We have also really enjoyed helping to plan and prepare Prayer Time sessions each week throughout the term.
Maths
In maths, we have been continuing to follow Maths, No Problem! This term we are learning to use numbers to 100, improve our addition and subtraction.
English
We have really enjoyed using some new exciting books as our focus in English, following Pathways to Write. We will be writing a story focusing on character description and conjunctions after reading Troll Swap by Leigh Hodgkinson.
History
This term we have been exploring ‘How was school different in the past?’ following our Kapow scheme of work.
We have investigated what schools were like in the 1900s, compared a modern classroom with a classroom 100 year ago and are comparing three periods of time.
Geography
This term our Geography topic will be learning about the Continents and Oceans around the World.
Science
In science we have been learning all about Living Things and their Habitats. We have loved learning about different habitats and food chains, and practising our enquiry skills exploring in our local habitat!

Art
We are really enjoying using nature to inspire us in our Explore and Draw topic in Access Art.
