This term Year 2 is learning about insects and bugs.  In Room 23 we used vivid and dye to create some art showing one of our favourite insects.  We then wrote a description about our insect.  These are some of our descriptions.  ‘I am an arachnid. I am black. I have 8 legs and 2 pedipalps. I have 2 body parts. I am a spider.’  Art

‘I am green. I have 3 body parts – a head, thorax and abdomen.  I have 2 antennae. I am a dragonfly.’  Rocco
