Hello Class 2 Parents,
This term is going by incredibly quickly. It's not all that long until the Christmas holidays and there is so much to fit in still!
This week:
* We have continued to practise the Nativity. Thank you for all of the work you've been doing helping your children to learn their words.
* The children have continued to learn about Ernest Shackleton. They learnt that he earned himself The Polar Medal and that he is famous because of what people said about his leadership.
* We did a little bit of a science investigation (to be continued) about water in balloons on a frozen day.
In Phonics the children have learnt the graphemes ph, ea and y (as in phonics, cream and funny). We are onto Phase 5 now - new learning for Year 1 rather than revisiting/consolidating.
In Spellings the Year 2 children have looked at the spelling pattern 'all' (all tall small fall) as well as al (altogether, always). Spellings are here - mostly very straightforward this week. If you/your child wants and extra challenge, see if you can find other words that fit these spelling patterns!
In Maths we have been looking at fact families (3 numbers in a family together, such as 10/8/2).
Year 1 homework is here and will be in their folders.
Year 2 homework is here and will be in their folders.
Please continue to help your children to learn their nativity words - next week we'll be practising without scripts! (Narrators not included).
Have a good weekend :)
From Mrs Simpson
