The Dinos ventured into the world of work this morning with Julie who came back to talk to the children about different careers they may have and why work is so important in terms of a salary and promotion. We really enjoyed playing her version of snakes and ladders where we had to think about the different skills each career required and how we would need to use maths, literacy and ICT in each job. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpslifeskills #dcpscore
Is that mrs scott anyone
Donna Bell not sure but defo looks like her
More times table superstars for Y2. I am so proud of their achievement #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsmaths #dcpscore
Year 2 had even more Learning Outside of the Classrom in the sun today! We were given a measurement and had to use the water in the buckets to fill the jugs with the correct amount. #dcpscore #dcpsdragon #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsmaths #dcpslotc
Year 2 were on a mission to find out the temperature of hot and cold water and then to find the hottest place in the school out of the classroom, hall or yard. Which do you think was the hottest? #dcpsdragon #dcpsdinosaur #dcpscore #dcpsmaths
This week Year 2 have taken part in lots of Learning Outside of the Classroom activities. We used adjectives to describe particular objects we found on the yard, explored the capacity of different containers and looked at how the local environment can be spoilt by littering. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsdragon #dcpsmaths #dcpsenglish #dcpsgeography #dcpslotc #dcpscore
Year 2 were tasked to find out which cup held the hottest and coldest water this morning and to give an accurate temperature reading. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsdragon #dcpsmaths #dcpscore
The Dinos used magnifying glasses to closely observe different seeds before making a detailed drawing of them. We love being scientists. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsstem #dcpscore
Year 2 used measuring scales this week to weight out certain amounts of pasta. We had to be very careful to look at the intervals on the scale to make sure we got just the right amount. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsdragon #dcpsmaths #dcpscore
This morning year 2 started to look at the measuring in grams. We got set the task to weigh out 100g of pasta, then weigh 200g of pasta and so on until we got to 500g of pasta. We really enjoyed this lesson, just look at all of our proud, smiley faces! #dcpsdragon #dcpsdinosaur #dcpscore #dcpsmath
In maths year 2 have been looking at measuring mass. We started off the week by feeling a 1kg weight and predicting which classroom objects may be lighter, heavier or the same mass as a 1kg weight. #dcpsdragon #dcpsdinosaur #dcpscore #dcpsmaths
Year 2 spent their maths lesson today comparing the mass of different objects but first we needed to estimate if they would be lighter, heavier or the same weight as each other or a kilogram weight. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsmaths #dcpscore
The Dinos are learning all about plants for our STEM week this week. We are looking at what the perfect conditions are for seeds to grow and will be observing our seeds over the next few weeks. Watch this space. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsstem #dcpscore
