Weekly news
We have had another fantastic week in Year 2 and the
children have been working very hard.
In English this week we have been continuing our work on our
Power of Reading book and the children have written some fantastic poetry. We
learnt about rhyme, rhythm and repetition and tried to include these in our own
poems called ‘Things I can do to help my world.’ We were impressed with
children’s ideas and green pen editing.
In Maths we have continued our work on data handling and
have used data to answer questions. We have also learnt how to draw a block
diagram thinking about the things we need to include to make these accurate.
In our topic sessions this week we have focussed on map
making and created our own maps. The children drew and labelled their own map
to show their journey to school; a friend’s house or our walk around the
village.
We want to say a huge well done to all of the Year 2
children who took part in the Dance Showcase this week. They were absolutely
fantastic and so well behaved as it was a very long day. Their dance was
amazing and they were a credit to the school. Well done also to the other
children who stayed at school and did some wonderful Paul Klee art work using
shapes to create pictures of buildings.
Don’t forget tomorrow is our history morning between 11 and
11.30. We are inviting a grandparent, parent or a family friend to come to
school to talk to their pupil about what life was like when they were little
and answer some interview questions.
Please note that PE kits will not be sent home with the
children on Monday.
On Tuesday 4th February, our PE session will be
in the afternoon and so that children can change after lunch.
