Good afternoon to all, where is the time going?
In English, the children have started to plan their
explanation text on their chosen monster and next week they will write their
explanation text including conjunctions, suffixes, adjectives and commas.
In maths, the children have finished their topic on position
and direction and next week we will be carrying out problem solving activities
to consolidate all topics.
In science, the children will describe how animals obtain their
food from plants and other animals, using the food chain.
In PSHE, we will be discussing the
difference between girls and boys bodies. The children will learn the correct
vocabulary for the body parts.
On Wednesday we
are going on our school trip with Year 5 to Frinton-on-Sea. The children will
need to arrive at school for 8.30 am
and we aim to return at roughly 4.30pm.
The children will need a packed lunch and bottle of water with them. They will
need to be wearing sun cream for the day, and can be sent with additional sun
cream if the weather requires it. They must also be dressed for the weather, so
please send them in uniform, but
with the additional clothing (such as raincoats/sunhats etc.) appropriate for
the weather that is forecast at the time. Please also provide a towel for your
child to use, subject to weather for paddling with an adult.
On Thursday it is transition day and the children will visit their
new teacher in Year 3.
Spellings will be practised in class which will be all the common
exception words for Year 2.
Have a great weekend and I hope the sun comes out!
From the Year 2 team.
