Summer Term
Check out what we have planned for this term's learning using the button below:
Deaf Awareness week
This week, we have been learning British Sign Language to celebrate Deaf Awareness Week. We have learned to sign our names and colours of the rainbow. We also performed the song 'Sing a Rainbow' using BSL.
🌸🐣 Spring is here 🐰🐥
Mrs Williams brought in some lambs for us to meet this week. We loved this experience, the lambs were very playful. Also, this week we paraded our Easter bonnets into the town centre. Everybody oved seeing our bonnets. We left them at the Market Hall where the public will vote for their favourite bonnet!
📚 World Book Day 📚
We had a great time celebrating World Book Day. We enjoyed dressing up as our favourite characters and sharing our favourite books.
💖🤩 HAppy Valentines DAy from 2b 🤩💖
➕➖ Marvellous MathEmaticians ✖️➗
During our Maths focused tasks, daily Mental Maths sessions and Planning in the Moment, we have been working hard using numbers and patterns this half term. We have been focusing on our number formation, using inverse operations, our times tables and continuing/creating repeating patterns. Numicon has also supported this learning.
Tric a Chlic!
We really enjoy our Tric a Chlic sessions in Year 2. We practise our Welsh sounds and play games using them daily. During Guided Reading, we also read a Tric a Chlic book with Miss Anna. In our independent time, we often choose to play on the Tric a Chlic apps on the iPads too.
❌💖 Healthy Schools Week 🤩🦠
We have carried out an experiment all about where germs live in our kitchens. We also celebrated our value of love with the story of The Invisible String. We learned all about Fairtrade thanks to Pablo the Banana, talked about the dangers of smoking and continued our dance with Beth, learning about how oxygen travels through our bodies.
What a busy week!

💻📲 Safer Internet Day 📸📩
On Tuesday 8th February, we celebrated Safer Internet Day across the school. In Year 2, we discussed private information and what we should share online. We also made recipes for a kinder internet and created strong passwords for our own Magic Castle game.
🕺🏼 Impelo Dance 💃🏼
We have had great fun taking part in workshops with Beth from Impelo Dance over the last few weeks. We have created routines relating to our class book of 'One Snowy Night'. We also created a routine all about our hearts during Healthy Schools Week. Here's a snapshot of the fun we have had. Diolch Beth!
🌸🐰 Spring Term 2022 🐣🌻
During our morning sessions we will be introducing the children to a range of different skills across all areas of learning. These skills will be modelled and practised through stimulating and engaging activities which will always have a Maths or a Language focus. Throughout the Spring Term these activities will be focused around the following stories and celebrations:
Planning in the moment
In our afternoon sessions, as part of the new Curriculum for Wales, we will continue following ‘Planning in the Moment’ in the Spring Term. Planning in the Moment allows the children to lead their learning according to their interests. They will have opportunities to develop and consolidate their skills within an engaging environment. This child-led approach allows high quality adult-child interactions both indoors and outdoors.
🎅🏻🎄☃️ Christmas All around Us! ❄️🎁🔔
We have been feeling very festive in 2B over the last two weeks. We have designed Christmas cards, jumpers and decorations by following instructions carefully and using our creative skills. We have also baked some Christmas biscuits using our knowledge of 2D shapes to think about how we decorated them.
We have celebrated Christmas by having a class Christmas party and having a yummy Christmas dinner! We made festive hats to wear when eating our Christmas dinner.
🎤🎭 Nursery Rhymes 📝🌠
During our focused tasks this half term, we have been looking at Nursery Rhymes. We have learned and performed a range of nursery and number rhymes. We have also had a go at writing our own rhymes to the tune of well known nursery rhymes. We had great fun designing a jigsaw puzzle of our favourite nursery rhyme scene and cutting it into pieces. Then, our friends had to use lots of perseverance to try and complete our jigsaws.
We really enjoyed this activity.

🎵🎤 Carols in the community 🎅🏻🎄
As a school we have enjoyed spreading Christmas cheer throughout the community by singing carols. Our class sang carols outside the local hospital. The community enjoyed our performance and we were able to raise money for our chosen charity

🟢🟡 Children in Need 🔴🟣

🎇🕯 Celebrating DiWAli 🕯 🎇
In R.E, we have been learning all about the Hindu Festival of Diwali - The Festival of Light. We have enjoyed designing our own Rangoli patterns in lots of ways and designing our own Diva lamps using clay.
🥕🧅 Vegetable Soup! 🥦🍲
This term we are reading the story of The Enormous Turnip and learning all about Harvest time. We have made vegetable soup which included our very own enormous turnip! We have enjoyed weighing, peeling, chopping and cooking the vegetables but most of all we enjoyed tasting our soup. It was delicious and we were very proud of ourselves!
🔴 International Dot Day! 🟢
Today we celebrated 'International Dot Day'. The day is celebrated to help us believe in ourselves and have a Growth Mindset in all we do. We read the story of The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds and realised that any mark we make is special. We spent the rest of the day making dots using various media. Check out our 'dotty day' below!
