Good afternoon Year 2.

We have had another very busy productive week in Year 2 and the time has flown by! The children all looked very smart today for their individual school photos.

In English the children enjoyed the story of 'Jack and the Beanstalk' they discussed the characters in detail using adjectives and wrote a character description.

In maths the children completed numerous problem-solving questions using arrays along with grouping and regrouping.

Next week

English - The traditional tale we will focus on is 'The Gingerbread Man'. The children will participate in discussion and collectively create a story board. They will role play the story in small groups modelling the vocabulary and repeated phrases. The children will write descriptive sentences and include a connective.

Maths – We will start our place value topic. Securing fluency to 20, regrouping, subtraction and place value. The children will be using number lines and the tens frame.

 RE - We will continue our lesson from last week on Christianity and the children will write in full sentences the meaning of the symbols including tree, water and light.

Art - The children will create an observational drawing.

 PSHE - The focus will be to work well and help others cooperatively.

 Science – The children will identify and name deciduous and evergreen trees.

History – The children will compare the school to Victorian times.

 

Spellings for next Friday are:

Group 1 – of, it, was, you.

Group 2 – poor, floor, door, fine, mine, behind.

 

Have a great weekend.
