Welcome to Year 2!

Hi Year 2!

Our current topic is:

In our History lessons we will be learning about the history of space travel. We will look at how it has changed since Neil Armstron, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins went to the moon in 1969 and Tim Peake lived and worked on the International Space Station in 2016.  During our Science lessons, we will be learning about forces, we will conduct investigations to find out how objects move and how this movement can be affected.  In Computing, we will be learning how to make music on the computer. In Music, we will be learning to accompany a song with both our voices and a selection of instruments. In Philosophy for Children (P4C), we will be using the story 'Michael' by Tony Bradman as a hook into thinking about a range of big ideas and help us form our own questions to talk about in our enquiry. This term, our RE concept is Angels and we will look at how Angels are represented at Christmas and what Christians believe about Angels.
