What a scary time we have had in year 2 -a dragon dared to enter our classrooms!!! However, our brave knights took up their swords and worked together to capture him before he could breathe fire on all the furniture. We used our experience to generate lots of vocabulary: describing our sharp weapons, the swift actions we took and how nervous we all felt.

Once we knew we were safe, we were able to concentrate on our other learning and had lots of fun in maths. We have been exploring shapes and how to count in different units of measurement. First, learning to use a ruler to draw in centimetres and metres. Then we used weighing scales to measure in grams and kilograms. With the Jubilee bake off round the corner, our year 2's now have all the skills they need to help weigh the ingredients needed to bake a delicious cake at home!
