Year 2 Looking Back and Forth 30th June

Friday 30th June 2023 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 2

Looking back:

I cannot believe how fast the weeks are flying past now. Year 2 have had a great week. In English we have been re-telling the story of Rosie Revere and using new vocabulary. In maths we are learning to tell the time to 5 minutes plus using all arithmetic skills learned so far. In guided reading we looked at a comprehension about castles. In History we have been learning about the features of a castle ruin. In Science we have begun to learn about food groups plus also enjoyed RE, music, PE and French.

Year 2 – Pupils’ Highlights:

  • Castles
  • French
  • Science

Family discussion/questions:  

What are the food groups?

Looking forward:

  • Reading books will be changed on Mondays. The reading folder is needed in school every day. Thank you.
  • This half term PE will be on Friday. School PE kits should be worn.
  • Writing a story – Rosie Revere
  • Science – food groups
  • castles
