Science in Year 2

Year 2 children became scientists this week, investigating the question: Do our feet get bigger as we get older? After thinking about the human life cycle and how our abilities change as we grow, pupils discussed whether everyone grows the same amount. They decided to collect two key pieces of data—age and shoe size—and worked in pairs to measure and record. Their findings sparked brilliant conversations about growth, genetics, and individuality. With curiosity and teamwork, our young investigators showed fantastic scientific thinking. A wonderful start to our growing topic—well done, Year 2!
