Year 2 Friday 8th March Looking Back and Forth

Friday 8th March 2019 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 2

Looking back: 

This week has flown by again! We started with Golden Time after the children worked hard to fill the marble jar. They enjoyed an afternoon choosing their own activities with a film, colouring, Lego and board games and more on offer. We have begun writing a story called Oliver and Patch and in maths we have been using all the arithmetic skills taught in Year 2. Thank you to those of you who visited the Art Gallery. Everyone worked hard to create the beautiful water colour pictures of daffodils. World Book Day was lots of fun. We enjoyed time reading and sharing books with the children in Reception as well as within our own class.

Year 2 – Pupils’ Highlights:

• “Spending time together.”
• “Reading my book with other children on World Book Day.”
• “Golden Time!”
• “I liked showing my family how brilliant my work is”
• “I liked learning about Florence Nightingale”

Family discussion questions:

• Who is Florence Nightingale?
• Where did she go to help people?

Looking forward:

• Story writing
• Times tables quiz
• Food chains
• How Shabbat is celebrated
• Parents’ Evenings
