Happy Friday!
The children have worked extremely
hard writing sentences using verbs and suffixes along with describing and
creating their monsters using magic clay.
The children solved numerous maths
calculations grouping and sharing using multiplication and division with
counters and cubes.
We had a fun morning at Little Heath
Church, please see photos taken below:

the topics the children will be covering over the next term.

Art:
Pablo Picasso, the children will
research the artist and recreate one of the paintings by cutting shapes with
coloured card.
Reminder: The Great Fire of London workshop
will take place on Tuesday, 25th February.
We kindly ask that the children come dressed in period-style clothing. Here are
some suggestions:
Boys:
A plain t-shirt (with or without a collar), a belt or cord tied around the
waist, a plain waistcoat (if available), and a flat cap (if you have one).
School trousers should be tucked into their socks.
Girls:
A plain white collared shirt, a long plain skirt or dress in black, brown, or
dark blue, and a plain waistcoat (if available). An apron or a white pillowcase
can be used, and a piece of white fabric tied around the head to cover the
hair.
Home Learning – the
children can choose a country to research and write some facts on the
following: their capital city, language, surrounding countries, someone famous,
a famous landmark and any other facts if they wish to. An A4 or A3 size would
be perfect, as I would like these to be displayed in the classroom.
Please could their home learning be
completed by Monday 31st March.
Wishing everyone one a fun and
restful half term.
From the Year 2 team.
