All of the children have settled brilliantly into Year 2. We are so proud of them all.

 

We have been learning about Egyptian Pharaohs and transformed a picture of ourselves into a pharaoh. We have also been learning about Egyptian hieroglyphics and enjoyed writing our name using these symbols.

 

We have started to learn our new text - Handa's Noisy Night. We have been writing descriptive sentences about the hut that Handa lives in and some children tried to include a simile!

 

In art, we have been looking at the work of Paul Cezanne. The children imitated his still life painting of a fruit bowl and did a fantastic job. See the pictures below.
