Creating wind vanes
We learned about what wind vanes were and what they do, and then created our own. We made sure to include the points of the compass on the wind vane to tell us the direction of the wind. We then took them outside to test them.

Year 2 enjoyed learning about how to stay safe around dogs. It was brilliant to learn how dogs might be feeling if we do the wrong thing. We also enjoyed hearing all the dog stories, and sharing some of our own!
Glockenspiels
We have started to learn how to play the glockenspiels to support our song ‘You Imagination’. We worked hard to find the different notes we needed and remember the order we needed to play in.
