Welcome to Year 2 – Summer

 

This term, we’ll be kicking off our brogues, donning our flip-flops and sauntering to the beach under the blazing hot British sun! (And we’ll be doing a lot of learning along the way!)

From Hove to further afield, we’ll be exploring the World’s seasides in style. It won’t all be sunbathing though! We’re going to be learning all about the wonderful sculptures of Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Chris Jordan and Andy Goldsworthy and creating our own art out of both clay and other natural materials.

We’ll be reading and writing stories about the seaside, producing exquisite poetry and learning all about Brighton in the Victorian Times – inspired by our trips to the beach. We’ll continue our beach-based adventures in Computing, when we’ll be learning how to edit photos of the sculptures we make on our trip to the beach!

Please let us know if you have any beach-related stories or experiences to share and, as always, we’d love any volunteers to come and do some reading with the children or join us on our trips.

Thanks and happy paddling!
