Year 2
Welcome to Year 2!
Autumn Term 2024
Where We Live
Big Question: What does it mean to belong to a diverse community?
This term we will explore:
The human and physical geography of the local environment;learn about historically significant people of Plymouth; consider people who live and work in our local community; carry out science investigations based on the story of ‘The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch’; and study the art work of Brian Pollard.
This term's curriculum letter and poster:
22.11.24: We walked to Central Library to listen to stories and choose our own books to take back to class.
We visited the Hoe today to look at statues ready for our history learning about significant individuals in Plymouth’s past.
Science
In Science today we used batteries and wires to light up a bulb. Some children worked out that if we use two batteries we get a brighter light but if we use two bulbs we get a dimmer light.
Science
In Science we have been looking at micro-habitats. We looked through the garden and talked about what different bugs would need in their own bug hotel.
Year 2 had fun applying gymnastics skills on a range of equipment.
