AUTUMN ADVENTURES

Discover all the wonderful things we've been learning, exploring and achieving together in Year 2!

Our Autumn Memories

Creating, Exploring and Scoring in Year 2!

It's been another exciting time in Year 2, with lots of opportunities to get creative, develop new skills and enjoy learning together!

Making Music!

We've been exploring our musical talents using 2Sequence on Purple Mash! The children had great fun experimenting with different sounds and creating their very own tunes.

Terrific Tones and Toney-Snakes!

In Art, we've been investigating tone and discovering how we can use our pencils to create different shades, from light to dark. We put our new skills to the test by creating some fantastic Toney-Snakes!

Rugby Superstars!

We've had an amazing time during our rugby sessions with Darren Greenwood from Old Crossleyans! The children have thoroughly enjoyed getting active, developing their rugby skills and working together as a team.

Marvellous Maths!

We've continued to explore how practical resources can help us become confident mathematicians. Using manipulatives, we've been investigating addition and subtraction, particularly when bridging through 10. These hands-on activities have really helped us understand our calculations!

What a wonderful mixture of music, art, sport and Maths! Year 2 are certainly keeping busy!

Learning Together – Our KIRFs Workshop!

We were delighted to welcome some of our wonderful Year 2 parents into school for our KIRFs (Key Instant Recall Facts) Workshop!

The children loved having their grown-ups join them as they explored lots of fun, practical activities and games designed to help develop their confidence and speed with important Maths facts.

The best part? These activities can easily be enjoyed at home too, making learning Maths facts fun for the whole family!

A big thank you to all the parents who joined us. It's always lovely to see our Salterhebble families learning together!

A Brilliant Beginning in Year 2!

What a busy and exciting start to the new school year we've had in Year 2! Our children have been exploring, investigating, creating and learning together.

Marvellous Maths!

In Maths, we've been getting hands-on with place value, using a range of practical resources to explore numbers and deepen our understanding of hundreds, tens and ones.

Mini Monet Masterpieces!

Building on our Art learning from Year 1, we became digital artists! Using the Impressionism tools on Purple Mash's 2Paint, we recreated Claude Monet's beautiful Water Lilies artwork.

Exploring Our Wonderful New Field!

One of the highlights of the term was the opening of our fantastic new school field! The children were so excited to explore this amazing outdoor space and discover all the opportunities it offers.

Reading Buddies Are Here!

We've also met our lovely Year 5 Reading Buddies! We're looking forward to spending time reading together each week, sharing stories and developing our love of books.

Healthy Eating Detectives!

In Science, we've been learning all about food groups and the importance of a balanced diet. We explored the Eatwell Guide, created food pyramids and sorted different foods into their groups.

We even kept our own food diaries for a whole week! Afterwards, we became food detectives, looking carefully at what we'd eaten and deciding whether our diets were balanced.

What an amazing start to Year 2! We can't wait for all the exciting adventures still to come!

Bookworms in Paradise! Our New Library

Year 2 were absolutely delighted to be the very first class to visit our wonderful new school lending library!

The children loved exploring the fantastic selection of books, snuggling up on our cosy beanbags and getting lost in a story of their choice. There was lots of excitement as everyone chose a special book to borrow and take home to enjoy.

Our new lending library will be available to every class each week, giving all our children the opportunity to discover new stories, explore different books and develop a lifelong love of reading.

At Salterhebble, we love reading, and we can't wait to see our little bookworms flourish!
