Year 2 - Park visit
As part of our English this half term, we have been looking at writing a non- chronological report all about Preston. One of the key features of Preston is Avenham and Miller Park. Yesterday, Year 2 enjoyed a walk to and around the parks. They were impecably behaved the whole time and had lots of fun. We saw squirrels, enjoyed a run on the park and enjoyed a well deserved biscuit and drink on the famous steps in front of the statue. Well done Year 2!
Year 2 maths
This week in maths year 2 have been looking at money. With it being less frequently used in our day to day lives, this is quite an abstract concept for them to understand. To help with this year 2 have been using plastic money in class and have been enjoying playing "Top Shop Money Game". Lots of the children have asked me to share this with you so they can continue their learning at home!
Year 2- DT
This half term, year 2 have been learning about wheels and axels, through designing and making their own cars! Today the children finished off their cars with the wheels, tested them for their suitablilty and evaluated there work! Well done Year 2, the Tidy Elephant has lots of new ways to get around now!
Big thank you to Mrs Gittens, our class govener who came to give us a hand a few weeks ago!
