Year 2 12th April

Welome to the summer term and International Week!

We hope you all had a lovely break over Easter and enjoyed the ever changing weather. 

This week is International week and we are learning about Italy. Can your child tell you...

- which continent we live in?

- which continent Italy is in?

- what is the capital city of Italy?

 

This week we are learning about life in Italy and comparing it to what we know. We have been or will be...

- learning about some of the famous landmarks in Italy and creating these to make a 3D map

- designing, making and eating pizzas!

- learning about the famous Italian artist and sculptor Michelangelo and experiencing painting upside down

- learning basic football skills

- listening to famous Italian musicians such as Pavarotti

 

It has been a lovely week so far and we will be ending the week with a little bit of writing about what we have learnt and our favourite facts about Italy.

 

Here are a few photos of this week...
