Geography fieldtrip

Year 2 went on a geography fieldtrip around Sandridge village.

We went on our walk to identify physical and human features.

Can you sort these into physical or human features?

road, bus-stop, shop, hill, vegetation, houses, church, farm, lakes, hedgerows,






Traditional Stories!

Year 2 turned the school playground into a fabulous fairy tale setting.

We made a troll bridge, troll gate, a magnificent castle, wonderful woodlands, Jack's beanstalk and a small cottage.

 A few children met an evil, ugly troll on his bridge.
More children met the troll on his gate.







A few girls were trying to climb the beanstalk to rescue Jack!

The wonderful woodlands! I wonder who you might meet here?

 Little Red and Goldilocks going for a stroll in the woods.
 
 Goldilocks was creeping around the three Little Bears cottage! She tried the porridge.



 The magnificent castle!
 The castle is full.  We have knights, princesses, a queen, a king and deadly dragons!

Welcome back!

Hello,

Year 2 had a fantastic first week back at school.  Our topic is about Scotland so we have been looking at life on a remote Scottish island and linking it to Katie Morag's Isle of Struay.

We worked in groups to create our own islands.  We have also made our own key of physical and human features.  How many human and physical features can you spot?

Kwik Cricket

An English summer wouldn't be the same without some cricket.

Year 2 were taught some basic cricket skills and took part in a 'Kwik Cricket' match against Year 1. 

Year 2 were the victors :-)






Year 2 Carnival

Year 2 celebrated the end of the year in style by having a Brazilian themed carnival.  We made some fantastic masks and listened to the beats of Rio and other samba music.  Year 2 used their new samba dancing skills and we had lots and lots of fun.

St Leonard's Church visit

We had a fantastic morning at St Leonard's Church and are beginning to recognise the main features in a church including the font, altar, pews, organ, pulpit and lectern.

After our visit, Em treated us to some squash and biscuits.








How many features can you name?
