I am very proud of Year 2 and all that they have achieved this year! We had great fun giving out certificates at our mini awards ceremony and enjoyed celebrating our special talents. Thank you so much for all of your kind gifts and well wishes. Enjoy your summer!
Mrs Franchi 🙂
We have had great fun changing we’re going on a bear hunt to we’re going on a treasure hunt in English. After writing our own version of we’re going on a treasure hunt we decided to record each other performing our stories just like Michael Rosen. We tried to upload our full stories but the files were too big! 🙁
Please click on the name of your child to see a little preview of their fantastic version of we’re going on a treasure hunt.
Enjoy! 🙂
Here are some pictures of us in action!
We have been busy bees crafting over the last couple of weeks in Year 2. We started by designing a puppet then we decorated and sewed it together.
We also designed our own pirate flags.
In English at the moment we are transforming the well loved story we’re going on a bear hunt to our own we’re going on a treasure hunt story. We started by learning and acting out the story we’re going on a bear hunt and have now planned our own obstacles that we will face, when finding hidden treasure on a deserted island.
We can’t wait to finish writing them! More pics to follow of our super-duper stories.
What a noisy afternoon Year 2 have had! We had great fun learning and singing pirate shanties. We chose instruments to play along with songs and performed them to the class
🙂
Year 2 are really enjoying our pirate topic this term and had great fun making their own treasure maps. Lots of children have even made their own maps at home.
We made keys for our maps first, making up our own symbols and naming them. We then tea bagged our maps to make them look old. Once the maps were dry we created our own treasure maps adding symbols from our keys.
They look fantastic and everyone was super proud of their map!
I am loving all of the treasure maps the children are making at home. Thank you to the parents who are spending time burning the maps to make them look old, they look great!
We worked together and helped Mrs Franchi follow instructions to make Hardtack biscuits. Hardtack biscuits are a simple biscuit that pirates ate in the past. This also helped with our measuring knowledge and we recapped that when we measure capacity we measure in millilitres and litres, and if we are measuring weight we measure in grams and kilograms.We will be writing our very own instructions to make Hard Tack biscuits for other pirates to use. If you would like to try a Hard Tack biscuit feel free to pop into Year 2 and use our instructions. 🙂
We had great fun turning into pirates and finding out new pirate facts! We even got to wear our own pirate hats!!
We also followed instructions to dance a pirate prance!
