Base 2 news
Miss McKinnon: July 2020
Welcome back Year 2! It was so lovely to have you back in school with us last week.
In English, we wrote our own diary entries as if we were the Queen as we have been reading 'The Queen's handbag'. The children worked really hard all week and have produced some fantastic pieces of writing.
In Music throughout the week we learnt the song 'London's Burning' and sung it in a round. We then learnt how to play it on the xylophone! We talked about the different notes, rhythm and pace.
A huge well done to Ollie and Leo for being our ACHIEVE winners!
