Over the last number of weeks we have been very busy learning lots of new things in 2nd Class! In Maths we have been focusing on fractions. We have used imaginary bars of chocolates and bags of sweets to help us divide things up into ½ and ¼. We were all wishing it was real chocolate though!!
In Geography and Science we have been learning about different climates from around the world. We focused most of our attention on the animals and plants that can survive in the desert. We discovered that the largest desert in the world is the Sahara Desert in Africa! Everyone enjoyed learning about the Cactus, Camels and Frilled Lizards.
In Art we have completed some lovely designs using fabric and fibre to decorate them. We decided to use such things as cloth material, feathers, sequins, lollipop sticks, paint and coloured paper. The finished products look amazing! Well done everyone!!
Second class have also really enjoyed all the activities that took place throughout the past week during book week. Everyone designed their own bookmarks to use when reading their favourite books. We also had lots of fun on Thursday when everyone came to school dressed up as their favourite character from a book, it was really great fun!
