Food and more in Year 2

Deja un comentario

Hello everyone!!!

Kids in Year 2 has been starving during these weeks in English classes hahahaha and the reason is that we have been learning about food. We have been listening to  “I’m hungry!!” so many times…

They already had previous knowledge about food, so that we have widened  it. We have been emphasizing speaking in complete sentences instead of just group of words. So they have been working on explain to the rest of the classmates about their preferences and what they think is healthy or unhealthy… such an experience.

To help us with this task, we read, saw, and played with the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. Besides helping us speaking with complete sentences by retelling the story, it was a vehicle to revise the days of the week and our main topic, food.

Of course, we read and shared the physical book, but here are some other resources we used to help us learn.

We hope you enjoy  these resources at home and have fun re-telling this classic story to your families!

We wish you a nice cultural week to you all!

Hello everyone!

It is almost the end of our school year and I would like to tell you about our Red Class progress during last weeks.

At the beginning of the term, we studied the wild animals in English through several games, role-plays, storytelling and songs. We love dance!

We use this song to learn more about actions using wild animals topic:

But without a doubt, our Red Class favourite song is… Walking in the Jungle!

We pretend we are intrepid explorers in the jungle and have lots of fun while playing!

We also take the opportunity to benefit spring time to learn more about the butterflies and their life cycle (from an egg to a beautiful butterflie), and we built our topic around the book «The very hungry caterpillar», by Eric Carle.

We made fantastics storytelling and draws. We already know a lot of interesting things about food and days of the week!

Below you will find an animated version of the book (although we prefer the real book!):

Then we started getting ready for our trip to the farm! We played games using the animals in our classroom and listen carefully for the sounds animals to guess them! It was really funny as it was like a TV show quiz!

 

During next weeks we will «be immersed» in the deep blue sea in order to know more about the sea animals and, of course, about the summer and swimming!

I would also like to tell you that we are working on phonics in English and we are sooo close to identify all the sounds in group 2 of Jolly Phonics! Bravo!

Hello, everyone!

This week, we have learned a very funny story about a Very Hungry Caterpillar!

We read, then watched the animated story and then made a beautiful picture in which we practised our comprehension skills, as we had to draw the»meals» the caterpillar ate every day! We also had to pay attention to colours 😉

 

 

Next week, we will continue learning many interesting facts about caterpillars and bugs!

See you soon!

Hello!

For the past couple of weeks in Year 2, we have been emphasizing speaking  in complete sentences instead of just groups of words.

To help us with this task, we read, saw, and drew the story of

The Very Hungry Caterpillar

by Eric Carle

In addition to everyone in the class retelling the story in sentences, the story was a vehicle to revise the days of the week, food and continue our work with insects.

Of course, we read and shared the physical book, but here are some other resources we used to help us learn.

 

We hope you enjoy  these resources at home and have fun re-telling this classic story to your families!

Enjoy your weekend!
