Year 2 have been busy and enthusiastic learners over the past few weeks. In English, we had a great time tasting delicious Chinese foods to inspire our poetry writing about strange food combinations based on a poem by Valerie Bloom. The children came up with some adventurous and imaginative ideas, from chocolate sushi to ice-cream and noodle soup. 

In Maths, we have been learning how to measure and compare the mass of different objects. We have been using grams and kilograms and practising reading scales carefully. 

In Science, we have been learning all about how to keep ourselves heathy. We discussed good hygiene habits and why they were important and had a go at brushing teeth, washing dishes, and brushing hair.
