Bonjour all the way from France
Year 2 have been learning about France and Europe.
In Paris, the capital city of France, there is a very famous landmark called the Eiffel Tower. 
After finding out lots of facts about the Eiffel Tower, the children created their own.
Special delivery
Today, we received a special delivery for the Year 2 staff and we are all excited to take up our challenge! Thank you!
Home learning at school
Some of our class are completing their home learning at school at the moment.
Look at these great drawings of the Eiffel Tower.
Learning a new skill of touch typing…
A picture paints a thousand words.
Year 2 are currently learning how to spell there, their and they’re.
Today, one of the children sent in a picture using one of these spellings. It made me stop and think just how proud we are of all our children.
One picture can paint a thousand words!

Dem bones, dem bones ……….
This week, Year 2 have been enjoying some scary learning based on extracts from The Funnybones books.
When they had completed their reading task, the children were asked to get creative and make skeletons using materials they could find around the house.
Here are some homemade Funnybones characters.
Another great week of home learning!
