In Year 2, the children are currently learning all about the artist Henri Rousseau in their Art lessons. On Friday, the children created their own Rousseau inspired piece of Artwork using key colours and shading.
On Monday, the children in Year 2 have been making their own animal puppets. Over the term, the children have designed an animal and have followed their design to create their felt puppet. Every child has worked hard to use their sewing skills to make their final product.
On Tuesday morning, the children in Year 2 were checking calculations. They were working in pairs to solve the calculations involving addition and subtraction. The children used a range of practical resources as well as mental strategies.
Year 2 have been making their own rain makers as part of their Aboriginal Art topic. The children needed to follow a set of instructions to make their rain maker. They loved the papier-mâché part of the lesson – it was very messy!
Next week, the children will be painting their rain makers in their last Art lesson of this half term.
On Thursday, Year 2 have really enjoyed their Art lesson.
The children are learning all about Aboriginal Art this half term. Today, they were creating paintings using the Aboriginal dot design.
