Zebras - Year 2

Hello Zebras

 

It is lovely to be back in school. 

Well done for all your great learning. 

 

Don't forget we have PE on a Thursday - so come to school wearing your PE kit.

 

You can contact us using our class email

zebras@stmargaretsipswich.org

 

Did you know?

Our new zebras - Max, Parsley, Fennel and Sage - have an interesting fact about themselves to share with you . . . 

You know that zebras live in Africa, but did you know that there are actually 3 different types of zebra?

We are Chapman's zebras.  We live in family groups called 'herds'.  In our herd, Max is the male stallion - he's in charge.  Parsley is a young male and Fennel and Sage are females.

I expect you know that zebras are found all over Africa but did you know where Chapman's Zebras come from?  We are found in southern Africa.  You can spot us in Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Botswana.  Can you see our homes on the map?

 

 

 

Female zebras are usually pregnant for nearly 13 months - that's over a year!  They usually only have one baby at a time.  Baby zebras start eating grass when they're only a few days old, but they also enjoy their mum's milk until they're 7-11 months old.

What are we learning about this term?

Our topic for this term is 'African Adventure.' We will be learning all about Africa, through Art, Music, Dance, DT and Geography. .

All of your homework will be found on our Microsoft Teams platform. 

This will be set on a Friday

You should have received an email from school with details of how to access this.
