Good afternoon, everyone!

The children have worked incredibly hard again this week. Well done, Year 2! We are very proud of their efforts and all they have achieved.

Next week’s learning

English – We will be starting our new book, Dear Earth by Isabel Otter and Clara Anganuzzi. The children will be writing a set of instructions and recording factual information about their chosen animals.

Maths – We will be practising different methods to solve calculations involving 10 more and 10 less, adding and subtracting multiples of 10.

PSHE – Our focus will be on working well with others. The children will learn how to cooperate effectively and support one another.

Computing – The children will use iPads to research the animals they have chosen during our English lessons.

History – We will be writing a recount of our upcoming visit to Hitchin’s British Schools Museum.

Important reminder

On Wednesday, we will be going on our class trip to Hitchin’s British Schools Museum, and both the children and staff are very excited!

Please ensure your child brings a packed lunch for the trip. As a reminder, we are a nut-free school, so please do not include any nuts or nut-containing products. We also ask that you avoid fizzy drinks and glass bottles. Thank you for your support!

Spellings for Friday are:

kind, mind, they, said, door, floor, again, children, climb, most

We hope you all have a lovely weekend!

From the Year 2 Team
