Summer Week 12: nearly there

Hello Class 2 Parents,

A couple of notices to start with:

Reading books and Badger books have been taken in for the holidays now so that we can sort them out next week.  Please double check for any stray ones at home. I'll send out a list next week of any specific ones I know are missing.

P.E. kits have come home. Your children need to come to school in their P.E. kit on Wednesday when it is our sports afternoon. On that day, they only need to bring themselves in their kit and their water bottle - no book bags. 

Reading cafe has finished for the academic year - thank you to everyone who has come at some point!

Optional parent meetings are on Monday after school. Please arrange these through the office so they can organise the timings. 

In Class 2 this week:

The children have started to write their final story, having been learning about story writing for the past few weeks. They are writing these entirely independently and it's great to see their confidence and enthusiasm for story writing!

In Maths we have been weighing things! The children started by weighing using cubes, then today started to weigh in grams. This will continue next week. 

Today the children completed their final spelling challenges. Thank you very much for all of the help you have given your children this year with their spellings. They've come a long way!

Aside from all of that, the children have been creating petroglyphs by carving images into clay, learnt about the fifth and final pillar of Islam and practised their sports day races and events! They also finished off their Turtle Watch story by taking Class 1 on a Turtle Tour (see photos). Some children represented tour guides, while others represented turtles. 

I think that's all for now. There's no homework this week, but if you wanted something to do, you could do some baking using a recipe in grams and send me photos!
