Hello Class 2 Parents,
We have had a great week in Class 2.
We have started to put together our new Mantle of the Expert story. The children watched a travel agency advert on Youtube and thought about where they might like to travel to. Then we began to set ourselves up as a team of travel agents. The children decided they'd like to be experts in nature travel, so we are called the 'Terrific Nature Travellers.' The children wrote profiles on themselves as travel agents, designed logos for our company and then covered the walls in posters showing the different continents that we offer travel to - first, researching the different wildlife that might be seen on each continent. The children worked in teams to produce their posters and are very proud of them - see below.
In Maths the children have been learning about fractions. Year 1 children learnt to identify a half or a quarter of a shape, or half of an amount of objects. Year 2 children learnt to find half, a quarter, two quarters or three quarters of a shape, and have been learning to find a quarter of an amount.
Year 1 homework is here.
Year 2 homework is here.
The phonics group has been revisiting the split digraphs in order to read and spell words. Their spellings are here.
The spelling group has been learning how to use a possessive apostrophe. They have a slightly different spelling challenge this week, which is here.
I hope you all have a good bank holiday week end!
Mrs Simpson
