From Colorful Storytelling to Creative Coding – A Week of Fun in Year 2!

At the start of the week we finished our final write of our story Little Red Riding Hood. Instead of having Little Red Riding Hood we wrote a different version of the story with a change of character. This included Little Blue Riding Hood, Little Green Riding Hood, Little Pink Riding Hood and many more amazing ideas! 

We have also been creating a mat for our Bee-Bots in computing this week. Once we made our mats, we used the Bee-Bots to discover a sequence. After that we added obstacles and then created a sequence to go around them. 

We have also had online safety day on Tuesday where we learnt about scams with the question- Is it too good to be true? 

We did a quiz on who our trusted adult are if we were worried and then did an activity sheet on what information we shouldn’t put online and what a scam looks like. 

In English we have also been learning how to write instructions. On Thursday we made fruit kebabs to then eat and then we were able to write the instructions on how me made them! We used command words such as cut, slice, peel and wash. We used Adverbs such as carefully, slowly and quickly. We wrote in chronological order using words such as first, next, after that and lastly. We also have been learning how to add conjunctions such as and, because, or and so.
