Year 2 - Armstrong
Welcome back to the start of the Summer term!
The children had a packed end to Spring, with their Night walk and Easter service. Their night walk was a huge success and the children all had a wonderful time! They practised their teamwork skills, their orienteering and their creativity to create a lovely evening filled with fun.

We also had a lovely science week, with a forensics session and a virtual reality session! The children loved learning all about DNA, fingerprints and how to identify someone, putting their detective skills to the test!

We also had a wonderful Indian Dance workshop for all the children, linking to our topic of Holi in RE. The children learnt a new dance style, put a routine together and performed it for us adults – they were amazing! They had such a lovely time learning about the traditional dances and when they were used and came out of the session practising in the playground!

Coming up this half-term, the children are starting their new book 'The Dragon Machine'. They will be writing about creating their own dragon machine, and have already had some practice in forest school!
We have started our new topic of plants in science, and the children will be learning about the parts of the plant, how they grow and even growing their own flower to see the process for themselves.
I have attached the topic web and family learning below. If you complete any of the family learning activities, please let me know; I would love to see what the children, and you, have created!
If there is anything I can help with, please don't hesitate to contact me or catch me at the door!
