This half term, Year 2’s topic is ‘History of Camden Canals’. We will look at photos and paintings of the canals from the past and present and make comparisons between them, talking about their original purpose and how that may have changed over time. In English, we will focus on the traditional tales and in particular ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’ and then we will move onto ‘Anansi the spider’ for our Black History book.

In Maths, we will explore place value and different ways of representing 2-digit numbers. We will also begin exploring different methods for addition and subtraction.

In Science, our focus will be ‘Plants’. In RE, we will be looking at the meaning of the Lord’s Prayer. In Computing we will concentrate on online safety, as well as some basic coding skills. The children will be able to explain their beliefs as well as learn about the ideas of others.

And in Art, we will be exploring starting the term working on our drawing skills.
