Our learning this week in Year 2
|
At the start of the week, we were all very excited to hear the story of Neon Leon to help with our understanding of a growth mindset. The children then went on to design their own chameleons. Leading up to the introduction of our new text, we have also looked at the story of The Three Little Pigs and retold the story in our own words.

This Week in Maths: We have been focusing on place value this week. The children have used the base 10 equipment to to help them count the tens and ones.
|
We talked about our own special books in our RE lesson. We focused on the following questions:
- Why is it special?
- How do you look after it?
- When do you look at your special book?
|
|
Reading - Please read every night. Answer a selection of questions about the thoughts, feelings and actions of any of the characters in your reading book.
Reading books will be changed every Tuesday. Each child will be given two books for the week ahead. Please ensure that reading books are brought into school every day. If a reading book needs to be changed, please write in the reading record book that your child has finished their book / read to the end. Thank you in advance.
Spellings - Please find this weeks spelling list below, as well as a link to spelling frame. Our first spelling quiz will be on Thursday 11th September. Each child has been given a paper copy of the spelling overview for Autumn Term 1.
|
Choose two or more spellings and write a sentence for each of the words. Remember to think it, say, write it and then check for full stops and capital letters. These sentences can be kept at home to be shared with your family.
