Welcome to Year 2!

 

Week 5

The children in year 2 were geographers and explored the village of Ironbridge Gorge.  

 We looked at the features of a gorge (a narrow valley) as well as the human and physical features.  We concluded that there were lots of shops, cafes and restaurants in the village due to the number of visitors that come to see the Ironbridge. 

Week 4

In PE this week the children in Swifts learnt how to stop in a balanced position by developing balance, stability along with the knowledge on how to land safely. The children then applied this skill to complete sporting challenges in the hall. 

Week 3

The children in Swifts enjoyed listening to a story being read to them by year 6 pupils from Wrockwardine Wood Junior School year. It was so lovely to see the children share a love for reading. 

Week 2: We are Historians.  

As historians we wanted to use different sources of evidence to find out about our school in the past. We looked at photographs, newspaper reports and old plans and maps.
