Happy Friday!

In English the children have worked extremely hard researching and writing notes on facts for their non-chronological report on bears.

Next week, the children will write their notes up into full sentences including correct punctuation and conjunctions. We will also start to read our new class book on Minpins by Roald Dahl and create command sentences.

In maths, we finished our topic on money and have started learning grouping and ungrouping on multiplication and division.

Next week, we will be looking at arrays to solve multiplication calculations. On Friday, it is maths day and the children will work collaboratively in small groups to solve numerous maths challenges.

In D&T our topic is on healthy food, this Thursday the children will be creating fruit kebabs. (The children do not need to bring in any fruit for this lesson, the school will provide this)

Spellings for Friday are:

Group 1 – this, boy, into, the.

Group 2 – when, it’s, child, children, find, hold, only, told.

Group 3 – Mr, Mrs, people, clothes.

Please could you let me know if you can help out on either the morning or afternoon for our Great Fire of London day on Tuesday 25th February.

Reading – following on from the letters received last week on our new Little Wandle reading scheme, please see inside your child’s reading record for the eBook username and password. I have written the title of the book your child has read this week in small groups. Please could your child re read this book as we are trying to build fluency. They will also continue to receive their banded chosen book.

Wishing you a great weekend

From the Year 2 team
