Bridge Engineering

In science this term, Year 2 are exploring how different materials are used and, as part of our “Are we nearly there?” theme on transport, we have been having fun exploring and testing bridge designs. Our strongest bridge held an amazing 650g despite just being made of a few sheets of paper! 

Puppet shows

We have worked so hard this week sewing and designing hand puppets. Today in groups we planned a story our puppet could be in. We planned in a dilemma, a resolution and a happy ending and performed our show to the rest of the class!

Puppets

We have really enjoyed sewing and decorating our own puppets this week. We have made a range of animals and will be performing them in a puppet show later this week!

Prayer spaces

We are really enjoying visiting the staffroom this week to work with visitors from the church to think about our values. We have enjoyed thinking about what we are thankful for and what qualities make a super friend.

Andy Goldsworthy

We are really enjoying Art and our latest piece of art work has been inspired by Andy Goldsworthy. 

Can you guess what we have made?

Plants

Our plants are growing so tall!! We have discovered the ones with light and water are the healthiest and are growing the tallest. We are excited to sell them at the Summer Fete!

Geography Ideas from Miss Boyer

I have discovered a scheme that Sainsburys are currently running, which will support learning in Geography. Cards are given to you each time you shop and there is a collection book, which has many interesting facts. What great alternative to football/Pokemon collection cards!

Think Tank Science Roadshow

Yesterday the Think Tank Science Roadshow came to Lickey Hills! We had a really exciting morning spent with the children from Beaconside and Holywell Primary. We investigated different sources of light and where they come from, what we need to survive and explored the different parts of the human body.
