Peake (Year 2) | Scissett CE Academy

Welcome to Tim Peake Class

Teacher - Miss Shaw

We are the Year 2 children at Scissett CE Academy and we are the oldest children in Key Stage 1. In Year 2, we are working hard to become more independent in our learning and build our resilience and confidence but we always make sure we have fun to make our learning experiences memorable and enjoyable.

Our class teacher is Miss Shaw and she loves to keep us engaged and loves helping us learn. Mrs Martin, Mrs McGregor and Miss Stone work in our classroom during the week and they are amazing at helping us to stay organised and develop our creativity!

We will be updating our blog frequently to share our learning with you at home – there’s lots of exciting things to come in Year 2!

Autumn 2024

Observational Artwork

Year 2 have had a fantastic afternoon of drawing. They created observational drawings of leaves using continuous lines and soft 2B pencils. You were fantastic Year 2!

Computing in Year 2

In English this half term Year 2 are looking at their non-fiction booklet 'How to make a bird feeder'. The children worked in groups to research the types of food that are and are not safe for birds. Miss Shaw was very impressed with their computing skills and how well they worked in their groups. Well done Year 2!

We love Reading!

In Year 2 we love reading! This half term we have been looking at the story Paddington in our book study lessons. The children have worked really nicely with their reading buddies. They have helped one another to read and understand the story. Miss Shaw is very proud of their teamwork and their wonderful reading. Well done Year 2!

Patterns in Nature

This afternoon Year 2 have been exploring patterns in nature as part of their art lessons with Mrs Whittle. They’ve loved using natural objects to try and create their own artwork.

English

In English this afternoon we have been looking at our book George and the dragon. We have been acting out the capture of the dragon. We had some very creative ideas on how the dragon might be caught. We have some wonderful actors and actresses! Very impressive Year 2

Science

In year 2, we went on a scavenger hunt around the classroom and outside. We then sorted out the objects we collected into two different categories. We put them into groups of Man-made or natural materials. The children did a wonderful job of working as a team. Some super scientists in Year 2!

School Council

Year 2 have been voting this afternoon for who they would like to be their school councillors. There have been some amazing posters, speeches and even flags made on why they think they would be good for the job. Miss Shaw is amazed with all the hard work that has been done to make all of their lovely resources. Well done Year 2!
