Year 2 Looking Back and Forth 17th November 2023
Y2 Friday 17th November 2023– Looking Back & Forth
Looking back: This week we have continued to identify the language features of a circular narrative and how the writer uses them. In maths, we have been adding and subtracting across 10. In science, we began our new topic Material Monster!
Year 2 – Pupils’ Highlights:
- I liked learning about Northern Ireland in Geography.
- I have enjoyed learning about physical and human features.
- I have enjoyed learning the songs for nativity X2
- I have enjoyed learning the story of the nativity.
- I liked reading the script x2.
- I liked learning about flags in Geography.
- I liked jumping in PE.
- I have enjoyed doing handwriting.
- I have enjoyed learning Makaton.
- I have enjoyed working with my learning partner- I have learnt new things from her.
- My learning partner helped me with my maths.
Family discussion questions:
- Please discuss the materials that different objects around the house are made of. Talk about why are they made of that material. Discuss any physical features of England you may have visited- a beach, a mountain maybe?
Looking forward:
- Next week we will be planning our own circular narrative, continuing subtraction in maths and very excitingly, finding out our parts in the nativity.
Reminders
PE is now on TUESDAYS!. 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’. 9 more children completed the challenge again this week and some children have now completed the challenge for the fifth time!!!!
Please record this in reading diaries so we can track their progress.
Thank you for your continued support,
Mr Warhurst
