Where Do We Belong? 

In Year 2 this term our topic is 'Where Do We Belong?' We have been learning about Middleton and the history of a local architect called Edgar Wood. He designed buildings around Middleton, Rochdale and Manchester. Some of these buildings are still around today. As historians we have been able to research MIddleton using the internet and create information books, timelines and share own knowledge with the rest of the class. As geographers we been able to compare our local environment with other places in the world using map skills.  

             

Year 2 have been reading 'The Owl babies' by Martin Waddell. We have enjoyed learning about Sarah, Percy and Bill and their night without Mother Owl. We have deen able to describe the charaters, settings and write our own version of the story. The children have made their own puppets to support them with their story telling.
