Year 2 – Gymnastics

We loved our first gymnastics lesson. We focussed on 8 key balances.

Cleaning up!

We have started our new class book ‘The Secret Sky Garden’ and we were inspired to get outside and clean up our playground. We even braved the rain to do it!

Here We Are

Today we started our whole school book – Here We Are by Oliver Jeffers. We started by reading the book together and then, in teams, we thought of everything that we can find on Earth. What a great start to the new term.

Yummy Christmas dinner

2KM loved their Christmas Dinner today. Telling Jokes from our crackers was so much fun!

Year 2 Football Stars

We couldn’t be prouder of our Year 2 boys. They played some fantastic football today, winning every match on the way to the play off but unfortunatly losing 2-1 for a place in the city final. One of our superstars was even picked as player of the tournament. What a talented team you are.

Year 2 Dodgeball Stars

Our first sporting event of the year was Dodgeball. This group of children represented our school like the superstars we knew they were and worked so hard to prefect some new dodgeball skills. We are very proud of you.

Superstar Rewards

In PSHE we designed a superstar certificate for a friend as part of our work on rewards.

Photography fun – perfecting our skills

Today we took different photographs, decided if they were good or not then retook them to make them even better.

We have worded hard on our pass and move skills today and then applied our new skills into a game of handball with James from Everton in the Community.

Nature art

Year 2 had lots of fun making art using materials from nature.

We are collectors. We are artists!

We loved finding out about Andy Goldsworthy and Hassan Hajjaj and how they were inspired by exploring,  collecting and recycling. We had a go at making our own natural art. What do you think?

Cake Sale

Thank you so much for all your donations towards MacMillan Cancer Support. Children had a lovely time – a lot of cake was enjoyed : )

Egg Box Dragon Kenning Poems

We worked so hard to create a kenning poem. We thought about what we know about Egg Box Dragon and used our knowledge of the suffix -er too. I am very proud of you all, good job!

Local landmark or not?

This afternoon in Geography we looked at lots of different landmarks. We decided if we had ever visited any of them before, decided which were in Liverpool and found their location on a map. We can’t wait to see them on the tour bus.
