Getting creative in year 2!

Year 2 have been creative making felt. They began by placing thin pieces of wool roving onto bubble wrap, creating colourful layers and patterns. They then added details by twisting and rolling the wool fibres. Next, year 2 placed a piece of net curtain and added soap and water. After that, they rolled their felt to squeeze out the water. Look at their amazing creations! ​

Furthermore, year 2 have been looking at abstract art. They looked at the details of stain glass windows and used these as inspiration to create their abstract designs. They used tissue paper and plastic wallets to stick their designs on, once they were dry they looked like beautiful stain glass windows. 

Lastly, in maths year 2 have been looking at lines of symmetry. They have been looking at shapes, drawing the lines of symmetry, and ensuring each side is equal. Linking with this, year 2 have been getting into the Christmas spirit and created snowflakes for their class Christmas tree. The children were able to notice the lines of symmetry and how the snowflake patterns are all equal once the paper is open.
