Year 2 have been learning to tell the time in Maths this week, They have learned about the different hands on a clock and can now read, write and match the time on a clock.

Year 2 have been learning how to write instructions this term.  First of all we looked at the different features of instructions.

 We structured a set of instructions, followed different instructions and had a go at writing our own.

For our Hot Write we planted some beans and then wrote a set of instructions for how to plant beans!

Miss Stainton’s maths class have been busy working collaboratively to identify different types of angles. We have been using the vocabulary ‘obtuse, acute, and right angles’ when describing them. All of the angles were linked to rainforest plants which also helped our topic knowledge!

Miss Stainton’s maths class have been very busy this week learning about the properties of a wide range of 2d shapes. Today they had to solve some rainforest animal riddles to reveal the hidden shapes the animals were hiding! There was some excellent team work going on as the children ventured around the pod working in pairs.

Miss Stainton’s class have been working really hard on their drawing, cutting, and sticking skills recently! We have been inspired by our new topic ‘Rainforests’ and have drawn some fantastic artwork. We also studied the fascinating ‘Morpho butterfly’ and created our own models of them. We definitely have some excellent artists in year 3!
