Science
We are learning about the difference between seeds and bulbs.
We discussed and answered the enquiry:
Which are the seeds and which are the bulbs?
We looked carefully at different seeds and bulbs and sorted them into different groups.
RE
Year 2 pupils enjoyed learning about how Christians help homeless people at St George’s Crypt and at Simon on the Streets. We discussed what Jesus might say if he visited St George’s Crypt and why people might volunteer at St George’s Crypt or Simon on the Streets. We made cards and wrote prayers to send to the clients at Simon on the Streets.
The Tiger who came to Tea
In literacy, we have been reading the Tiger who came to tea by Judith Kerr. We have been re-reading the story using puppets so we are fluent readers. We practised using lots of expression in our voices to make it sound really interesting.
Can you find an example of a material for each property?
We looked carefully at a range of different materials and sorted them into 4 different groups according to their properties. We had a great time!
Class 2 Monsters!
As part of our Literacy work, Class 2 have been reading the book 'Not Now Bernard' by David McKee. We have drawn our own monsters in art and we are going to write a description of the monster using adjectives. We hope you like our pictures!
Back to School!
Class 2 have had a great few days! We have been using base 10 and straws to practise our place value skills and make 2 digit numbers in maths. In literacy we have been thinking of different adjectives to describe toys and sorting them into different types of toys. As part of our science lesson, we have been thinking about different materials and looking for them around our classroom. It has been action packed and we have had a fantastic time! Well done. Mrs Smallwood is very proud of you.
Enjoying the Fruits of our Labour!
Lotherton Hall
As part of their science learning, Class 2 visited the bird garden at Lotherton Hall to do a workshop about different habitats. Lyndsey, the education officer talked to us about different habitats and their similarities and differences. We thought about the different plants and animals that we would find in a rainforest habitat and a polar habitat. We were able to look at replica skulls of different animals. After the workshop, we had a guided tour of the bird garden and saw a range of different animals. Next we ate our lunch. We had time for a walk and a playground visit before returning to school.
DT - Woodwork Skills
Class 2 have enjoyed designing and making their own moving toy using wheels and axles. The children used junior hacksaws, D Clamps and sandpaper to shape and cut their wood. The children were proud of their finished product and have enjoyed playing with them.
Potatoes
Throughout the year in Class 2, we have been planting seeds and bulbs and looking after the plants which have grown. In April, after chitting the potatoes, we planted them in the tubs outside the classroom. We added earth to the pots and made sure that they had plenty of water. Last week we had a great time harvesting the potatoes! We are going to cook and taste our delicious potatoes.
RE Visit to Bilal Masjid Mosque
Year 2 really enjoyed visiting Bilal Masjid in Harehills today. We looked at the features of a mosque and even had an opportunity to try Wudu (the cleansing ritual before prayer). We enjoyed asking questions to deepen our understanding of Islam.
Capacity
Today we explored the capacity of different measuring cylinders and a range of containers. We practised measuring different volumes – eg full and empty, half full and also measuring in millilitres and litres. We used our problem solving skills to work out the capacity of a cup using a measuring cylinder.
Allerton Park
Class 2 were kindly invited by the Yorkshire Children's Charity to take part in a sports day at the beautiful Allerton Park. We played games in the morning, ate a delicious picnic lunch and then really enjoyed a disco in the afternoon. It was a lot of fun and Class 2 were a credit to St Peter's School. Thank you to Yorkshire Children's Charity!
Beach Flags
As part of our learning about keeping safe at the seaside, we practised using a ruler in maths to measure rectangles accurately in centimetres to make a beach flag. We also used the ruler to measure the art straw for the pole of our beach flag.
Unihoc
Class 2 really enjoyed their introduction to unihoc today. They practised how to hold the stick correctly, dribble and pass. It was a lot of fun!
RE
Year 2 have been learning about Islam. Today we looked at some pictures of mosques and discussed how a mosque is a place where Muslims come together to pray. We looked at some of the features of mosques. The children observed that many mosques have a "minaret". We learnt this comes from the Arabic "manarah" which means lighthouse and is the tallest part of the mosque. We looked at the dome at the top and the mihrab, which indicates the direction of Mecca.
We enjoyed using junk modelling to make our own mosques. We discussed the different features with our partner.
Lettuce
After looking carefully at the seed packet, we planted lettuce seeds at the end of April. We made sure that the raised bed was in the sun and remembered to water the soil regularly. Look at the lettuce that we have grown! We have harvested and eaten the lettuce. It was delicious!
Alive, Once Alive, Never Alive
As part of our new science topic, 'Living things and their habitats', Class 2 have been learning about how to sort and classify objects depending on if they were alive, once alive or never alive. We had to think carefully about the features of living things for example, they move, grow and need nutrition. We looked around school for objects that were alive, once alive and never alive.
Butterflies
In science in Class 2, we have been learning about life cycles. We watched the caterpillars grow, turn into pupas and then hatch into painted lady butterflies. We were able to keep them in our classroom for a few days. Then we released them into the playground.
Dance
This half term, Year 2 have been exploring dance. Today we used silks to incorporate our learning on circle movements, jumps and turns. We hope you enjoy our silky moves!
Science
DT
As part of our DT learning, we made hand puppets. The year 2 children used a running stitch to fasten their fabric together. We followed a design criteria and used our creativity to make our puppets individual. We hope you enjoy looking at them!
Music
Year 2 are enjoying using percussion instruments to explore patterns in music.
Science - Capacity
As part of our science topic on plants, we are carrying out an enquiry 'Do seeds need light to germinate?'. We have planted bean seeds and put 2 bean plants on the windowsill in a light place and 2 plants in a dark place. We are going to observe the plants over time and try and find the answer to our question. It is important that both plants have the same amount of water, so we practised our capacity skills - using a measuring cylinder to measure accurately in millilitres.
Geography
We have been learning about the compass rose and how we can use the points of the compass (north, south, east and west) to accurately direct people around a map. We worked with our friends to direct them around a mat using directions such as ‘Go east 3 spaces.’
Author Visit
Class 2 had a really lovely visit from the author Richard O'Neill. He talked to us about the process of writing books from thinking of an idea, writing the idea down and then getting his books printed. It was great to talk to a real author about their work!
Learning today - Friday 10th March
Skelton Grange Trip
Class 2 had a wonderful trip to Skelton Grange as part of our science topic - animals including humans - keeping healthy. We have been learning about what all humans and animals needs to survive - air, food, water and shelter. We thought about which of the basic needs we couldn’t survive very long without (water). We pretended that we were on a desert island and we had to build our own shelter and make our own warmth with a firesteel. We played lots of exciting games and enjoyed eating popcorn around the campfire. It was great fun!
Continents and oceans of the world
We used an atlas to develop our locational knowledge of the world. We worked as a pair to complete a jigsaw of a map of the world and located and named the world’s seven continents and five oceans.

Class 2 Assembly
Class 2 shared their learning about toys with us in a super assembly. We watched them play marbles, cup and ball, do skipping rhymes and play with dolls from long ago. Well done year 2.
Abbey House Museum
Class 2 had an excellent trip to the Abbey House toy museum as part of our topic on Toys from the Past. We had the chance to handle toys that were over 100 years old - it was fascinating.
Trip to the Seaside!
Even though the sun wasn't shining, Class 2 had a fabulous day at the seaside. We all enjoyed playing on the beach and splashing in the sea - getting soaking wet! Once we had dried off, we all had an ice cream and a sleepy journey home.
