Y2 Friday 8th March 2024– Looking Back & Forth
Looking back: This week we explored the vocabulary in Grandad’s Island and used this in our own writing. In maths, we have been learning to measure length and height in centimetres and metres. Did you know the school building is 32m long?

Family discussion questions:
Next week we will be learning about mass- and weighing lots of objects. Please talk to your child about any examples of weighing you do at home- maybe when cooking.
Looking forward:
Next week we will begin to plan our own return narratives. In maths, we will be learning to measure mass using grams and kilograms and in history we will discuss why Samuel Pepys is so important in The Great Fire of London. We also have exciting activities planned for British Science Week.
PE is on FRIDAYS! Please ensure school PE kit is worn.
Reading books are changed on Mondays. The reading folder is needed in school every day. Thank you.
Reading books should be brought into school every day. Children’s books will be changed weekly.
Please continue to read every night as this underpins so much learning in Year 2. For every consecutive 14 days of reading the children will receive 10 house points and see their face on the ‘Reading Challenge Wall of Fame’. Please record when you read with your child in their reading diaries so we can track their progress and see who has completed the challenge this term!
Have a great week,
Mr Warhurst
