Morse Code
 
As part of our Titanic topic, we've been using our own Telegraph Key to send and decode messages!
Learning about exercise
 
In Science, Year 2 have been learning about the benefits of exercise and have been investigating which exercises cause our heart rate to increase. 
Titanic Art
 
Year 2 experimented with different grades of art pencil and different drawing techniques, including cross-hatching, stippling and scumbling.
 
We then examined a photograph of the Titanic leaving Cobh and discussed how we might use the different grades of pencil and drawing techniques to recreate it. We've produced some wonderful artwork!
P.E.
 
We've been doing circuits in P.E. We love working up a sweat!

Oil Pastels
 
We loved creating artwork inspired by Kandinsky using oil pastels.
