We have had a great start to Year 2. Ochre class have really shown that they are developing as learners across all curriculum areas. Whether its is consolidating their learning of place value of numbers to 100, or writing stories and facts in English, using key success criteria such as capital letters and full stops in the correct place.
Our topic ‘Animals and Me’ has allowed them the opportunity to recap their knowledge of animals and build upon this with an understanding of life cycles. We have looked particularly close at the life cycle of a butterfly, seeing this first hand with our own school caterpillars. To support their learning we went to the Horniman Museum and had a fantastic time in the Butterfly house. They discovered that butterflies come in all shapes and sizes, have four wings and even have taste buds on their feet!!
