DT with Early years
As part of their topic in DT, Year 2 had to design and make a vehicle for EYFS children to play with. The Year 2's carefully followed their design brief and success criteria to make a vehicle suitable for young children. The Year 2 children finished their vehicles by the design brief deadline and on Thursday afternoon they visited the EYFS to play with their vehicles. The Reception children were so respectful and played with the vehicles carefully. As you can see from the pictures, we all had a lovely afternoon working collaboratively. It was a fabulous opportunity for different Key Stages to interact and work together.
Art
Year 2 have been exploring painting animals and their habitats. First, they used water colours to paint British wildlife in their habitat. We then looked at Australian Aboriginal artwork and the children used poster pain with cotton buds to create their own animal pictures.

Gold Balloon Reward
Year 2 enjoyed their first Gold Balloon Reward on Friday. The children chose to have a teddy bear's picnic and movie. They enjoyed sandwiches, biscuits and crisps which they shared with their cuddly friends. We have had a super start to the year and the children have settled brilliantly into their new class. Well done Year 2, we can't wait to see what you choose for your next reward!
