In geography we have been looking at hot and cold places. Today we thought about what we might need if we went on holiday to a hot or cold place and prepared our suitcases.
Today we learned that a continent is a group of countries. We learnt that there are seven continents and we learnt the names of them. We also had a go at locating the continents on a world map and labelling the world map. You may like to listen to the continents song at home to help learn the names of the continents. https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&ved=2ahUKEwiti-6f_aX6AhWPX8AKHcdIDz0QtwJ6BAgIEAI&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DK6DSMZ8b3LE%26vl%3Den&usg=AOvVaw0-1CixQd1uagMgXn15d6ID
During RE day yesterday Year 2 thought about the idea of candles and light as a symbol. We thought about how we use candles, for example on a birthday cake. We then learnt about the Jewish festival of Hanukkah and the Christian celebration of advent and how both religions use candlelight to help them remember special events in their religion. We then made our own candle holders out of salt dough.
Today, Year 2 looked at inclusive sports! More specifically, they had a go at boccia and new age curling. After a quick explanation of the rules, they were away and it did not take long for the children to get the hang of it.
