Class 2T

This afternoon 2T have been designing and creating our cardboard cars.

2T's book fair visit will be Tuesday 17th November. I apologise for any confusion.

Book fair is coming next week. If you would like your child to visit the book fair to purchase a book please send any money in a sealed named envelope. @yardleyprimary

During English this morning we played a game of eye-spy to describe the images on the screen. We have come up with some fantastic expanded noun phrases.

Our new D & T topic this term is wheels and axles. Our first task is to identify what is already available, before we design one of our own.

Yesterday 2T went to outdoor learning, we searched the area for habitats which supports our new Science topic.

Well done 2T for a fabulous start to year 2. We have worked with number bonds to 10 as well as experimenting to see how certain materials behave when squashed, twisted, stretched or bent. It's been a busy week. We have also managed to win the attendance award.

We then played some games which we needed to be resilient and determined.

We also explored the forest area and created some bug hotels.

What a beautiful day we have had at Brighouse. We had a lovely brisk walk in the sunshine.

We are just having a safety talk here at Brighouse.

During maths here in 2T we have been adding 3, 1-digit numbers together. We have been using concrete items to practically show the questions and the answers.

This afternoon we used some musical instruments to create a call and response. This is supporting our music lesson.

In 2T we have been finding out about Antarctica, in this activity we organised pictures into climate, landscape and animals. We did amazing.

In 2T this morning we have been identifying verbs. During our carousel of activities we wrote sentences, chose between verbs and nouns, played charades acting out the verb, verb matching verbs past and present and finally creating a sentence using semantics.

In 2T this afternoon we begun to design a house, based on a three little pigs house. We will then be testing the materials used to check their suitability. We have used paper, lego blocks and wooden sticks. Which material do you think will be the most suitable?

What a great start to a Monday. During our computing lesson 2T have been using the beebots to show we can use technology that is not a computer. We had great fun challenging each other to move around objects.

What a great afternoon 2T had outside yesterday. All children made the most of the outdoor area.

This afternoon 2T have really enjoyed having a positive afternoon during our value hour.
