We are so happy to welcome the children into Owl Class this term! It’s been wonderful to see their excitement as they enjoy their classroom. Take a look at our book corner, calm corner and art station which they’ve been making lots of use of with our collages.

Their enthusiasm and creativity have already filled the room with joy, and their amazing work is proudly displayed on our Wow Wall for everyone to admire!

We’re looking forward to a fantastic year ahead, full of learning, laughter, and discovery. Here’s to a brilliant start and many more wonderful moments in Owls and Year 2!

Have a look below to see all the fantastic things we will be learning this term!

Spring 1 Term

Owl class are thoroughly enjoying their ‘A Journey to the Moon’ topic this Spring term. During our art topic, the children have been studying the artist Vincent Van Gogh, and in particular the painting ‘Starry Night.’ The children looked in detail about the colours and shapes used in the painting. We discussed about the emotions and feelings that this painting evokes. The children created their own versions of the ‘Starry Night’ painting using a range of media. The children demonstrated our school value of being creative throughout this topic and their artwork was absolutely incredible. Furthermore, the children worked collaboratively to create a large version of the ‘Starry Night’ painting using mixed media. 

In our English lessons this half term, we have been learning about diary writing. We have been studying the book ‘Look Up!’ By Nathan Bryon. Owl class identified there are many specific writing features used in a diary. These include, writing in the first person, past tense, feeling adjectives and adverbs. They then used these to write their own diary entry in role as Rocket, who is the main character from the story. What ambitious ants they all are!

In our maths lessons this half term, we have been learning about place value and using our tens and ones to solve problems. Owl class are marvellous mathematicians, and they can identify how many tens and ones are in a 2-digit number. In addition to this, they have challenged themselves further by partitioning numbers in different ways. What superstars!
