Year 2

Update for Week beginning : 24.9.18

We have had great fun this week learning all about weddings, and even had the opportunity to visit All Aspects Wedding Shop to get some wedding planning ideas! Take a look at our website post for more details on this exciting trip!

The spellings we are practising this week are:

mind, behind, child, children, wild, climb

Maths and English Information:

In Maths next week the children will be practising their addition and subtraction skills in both practical and written contexts. It would be fantastic if you could practise some addition and subtraction at home with your children to support this learning. There are also some tasks on the MyMaths site so please log in and give those a go!

In English the children will be writing their own versions of the story ‘The Scarecrows’ Wedding’, using all their knowledge of story structures from the last few weeks. The children are looking forward to sharing their stories by reading them out loud to each other.

Other curriculum news:  

Project: Year 2 enjoyed their visit down to All Aspects Wedding Shop this week! Miss Rogers, Mrs Rayner and Mrs Stopler all got to try on some dresses, and the children also chose bridesmaid dresses for Miss Rogers’ bridesmaids! The children learnt about all the different styles of dresses and the fabrics they are made from, as well as the different parts of a groom’s suit. Thank you to all of the adults who kindly gave up their time to help us on this visit.

Thank you to all the children who have brought in their home learning projects already, they are starting to fill up our project display! We look forward to seeing many more interesting and exciting home learning projects over the next few weeks.
