Year 2 are Eco Warriors!

This week we have really been focusing on our wonderful world. Firstly we planted more trees. Next we looked at the story of its Creation and watched a wonderful film showing our incredibly beautiful world. After that we thought about how we could improve how we look after it. Finally we have been making an action plan to improve our own care of our environment. Oh and we also have been writing instructions!










Looked at our local environment and make a class display of the school campus noting all the human and physical features.














During World Book Day, we did some story-telling and puppet making. We also wrote instructions on how to make a thaumatrope. We then made one featuring the turning of ourselves into our World Book Day characters!



















We have been looking at different types of angles - we can draw them and even name them! We also know how to tackle division with remainders! Unbelievable!

Have a super weekend.

Time to grow...

What a glorious week to plant some trees!! Year 2 have spent a few happy hours planting trees to mark the half centenary celebration of Copthill. We learnt about the importance and pleasure we gain from trees. We look forward to seeing them flourish!

As our piglets certainly are doing! After not seeing them for a few weeks we were amazed at how big they are getting!































































We have introduced our new topic - Neighbourhood Watch and have seen our school and it’s surroundings on Google Earth. It was a great way to spot all the physical features of our local environment.

Can you believe that we can give very clear instructions to turn each other into dinosaurs? There were a few scary ones stomping around the playground this week! 

We had a superb Maths Day - we played fantastic games and were given some rather tricky and challenging puzzles to solve. 




















Lets hope the lovely weather hasn’t quite abandoned us yet! Have a lovely weekend!!
