Blown away with the progress Year 2 are making in music. After 2 weeks off we came back and sight read 3 note music using dynamics and crescendos. Mr Dalton #harrowgateacademy #harrowgatemusic

We are really getting to grips with possessive apostrophes in Year 2. Independent sentences to describe an image today. Mr Dalton #harrowgateacademy #harrowgateenglish

When maths meets music! When the music teacher notices you are learning half and quarters in maths and uses this to explain notation. 🎵🎶➗👏 #harrowgateacademy #harrowgatemaths #harrowgatemusic Mr Dalton

After finding out what conditions seeds and bulbs need to germinate, we started our comparative experiment to test them. We will be watching closely for signs of life. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgatestem Mr Dalton

What better way to explain the process of germination than to be the seed and the parts needed. Each part was interviewed to explain their role. Can you spot the seed, water, root, shoot and sun? We loved our first attempt at drama in science. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgatestem

How does Sonny feel knowing he can’t find his homework? We took part in a freeze frame to explain. Children used emotional, worried, anxious, guilty and many more with great reasons too. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgateenglish CLPE Mr Dalton

I feel a note to the teacher may be needed to explain! Watch this space…📝

We are getting so good at reasoning in maths. The discussions generated by this question were staggering. Well done year 2. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgatemaths

We love a recall spinner in Yr 2. Would person A or B have to answer? Would we get the same question 3x in a row? (we did!)love the double fist bump when you’ve coached your partner and she nails it!👊👊#harrowgateacademy #harrowgatehistory Mr Dalton

MATCHDAY! Bring the noise! 👊 #UTS 🔴🔵 #Steelmen

At Harrow Gate we know how important road safety is and KS1 were lucky enough to have ClevelandFB helping us out. Echoes of stop, look and listen could be heard for the rest of the day. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgatepd

Our first focus sculptor in Year 2 was Barbara Hepworth. After learning she was inspired by nature and liked to put holes in her sculptures as a view to the world, we used created our own Hepworth inspired soap sculptures. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgateart

A carousel of activities to experience and create the four types of sculptures. We can now explain what type of sculpture we are making or looking at. #harrowgateacademy #harrowgateart

We discovered that Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth went to school together and were friends. We created an art gallery to compare and contrast their art. Some amazing, respectful discussions were heard. #harrowgateart #harrowgateacademy
