Castles - Year 2

What a wonderful climax to our topic 'Castles' this term.

 

Children in Year 2 ended their topic with a design technology afternoon creating their castles which they had deigned in a previous lesson.

 

Their castles began with making a drawbridge using a variety of technological skills including cutting, knot tying and hole punching.

 

Next the children added a variety of castle features that we had learned about this term. Most of the children worked independently to create their castles using a variety of resources they had requested in their planning.

 

Children tell a grown up all about your learning this term - 

  • Talk to your grown ups about the castle defences on your model. 
  • Talk about how castles were attacked
  • Talk about how castles have changed over time
  • Talk about the Knights and the armour they wore
