Y2 Hygiene Talk

Out theme this half term is Healthy Me! As part of this we have been learning all about hygiene and we were lucky enough to have a visit from some nurses. They told us all about oral hygiene and some of us were shocked to find out that we need to brush our tongue as well as our teeth. The best part was putting gel onto our hands and holding them under a UV light to see the germs. Once we washed our hands for 20 seconds we put them back under the light and the germs were gone!

Y2 Food Tasting!

In Design Technology Year 2 are going to be making a healthy pizza. Our first step was to taste test different ingredients to see which ones would make the cut. One of our favourite toppings was tuna but we weren’t fans of the olives.

Y2 become Posties!

As part of our Maths unit on place value, we wanted to show the children why they might need to read 2 digit numbers in real life. This is why we became Posties for the day! We walked around Webb Crescent and delivered letters. We had to read the tens and ones to accurately identify the number and as an extra challenge we had to figure out if the house number was odd or even so that we knew which side of the road to look on.

Y2’s hunt for IT in our community

As part of our Computing Unit ‘IT in the World Beyond School,’ we walked to Dawley High Street to look for information technology. Some of the things we found included cash points, tills, lamp posts and a pedestrian crossing machine. We talked about how information technology helps people to complete jobs and keep people safe.

Y2 Germs! Germs! Germs!

In Science we have been learning all about hygiene. We found out that germs are so tiny that we can’t see them with our eyes. The French Scientist Louis Pasteur discovered that germs travel from person to person through touch. To test this out, we covered our hands in germs (herbs) and saw how quickly they spread when we touched someone else or an object. It was messy and super fun!

Y2 First Aid Day

We learnt all about what to do in an emergency. We found out that an emergency is a dangerous situation that needs immediate help. We now know that we call 999 and ask for the emergency service we need. This could be police, fire or ambulance. When we call, we have to tell the operator what has happened and where we are. We know that we must never call 999 if it is not an emergency.

A Thank You From Y2!

What a first week we have had in Year 2! We have loved using all of the new resources in our classrooms and we wouldn’t have had them without you. We want to say a massive thank you to all the amazing parents/carers that chose to donate money so that we could provide lovely new play equipment for your children to enjoy. Also thank you to those of you that had a sort out for us and donated toys too. The greenhouse has been a particular hit and we have already planted daffodil bulbs, pansies and sweet peas. We can’t wait to see them grow. Here are a few photos of just some of the things you helped us to purchase. THANK YOU!

Year 2 Monster Mayhem

Back in spring our Year 2 pupils entered a competition where they had to design and draw their very own monster. Some of our pupils were lucky enough to have their designs published in the book MONSTER MAYHEM, which is now in our school library. We are very proud of them all!

Year 2 Boys Crossbar Cup

On Wednesday the Year 2 boys took part in the penultimate Crossbar Cup of the summer, for some of them it was their first time representing the school!

After some tricky games in the group stage (only losing 1 game out of 5!) we finished 3rd, giving us a spot in the semi final of the plate competition.

After a comfortable victory in the semis, we went through to the final against a very good Hollinswood team who unfortunately scored a fantastic goal to defeat us 1-0.

Whilst the boys were disappointed to lose in the final, they should be extremely proud of themselves for leaving with silver medals in a tournament with so many quality teams.
