Year 2 Looking Back and Forth 18 December

 

Friday 18^th December 2020 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 2

Looking back:

Thank you for a fantastic week at school Year 2. We were treated to a performance of Peter Pan on Monday and we also experienced “The Cherry Coloured Coat.” We all really enjoyed these performances.

We have been busy publishing our finished versions of the Night Gardener story for our class display. Maths was all about division. In art we finished the water colour pictures of Florence Nightingale – we have some fabulous artists in Year 2!

Thank you for all the cards, messages and gifts. I feel very lucky and am looking forward to opening them on Christmas Day. Please check your School Spider emails for a message too.

Happy Christmas everyone. I hope you have a restful and safe holiday.

Year 2 – Pupils’ Highlights:

• Peter Pan
• The Cherry Coloured Coat
• Florence Nightingale art
• A message from Father Christmas!

 

Family discussion questions:  

• Who was the “Cherry Coloured Coat” a present for?

 

 

Looking forward:

5. Reading books are changed on Mondays – but please ensure your child has their pack with them every day
5. The Great Fire of London
5. Science
5. Geography - continents

 

Homework in Year 2

Please read with your child every day. Many children are decoding their reading books well but find answering the comprehension questions much harder. We are working on this at school but it will really help if you can also ask questions during home question time. Please see our class page for further ideas (files section).

Maths: division sheet due Friday 8^th Jan

English: reading comprehension due Friday 8^th Jan

Spellings: common year 2 words to be quizzed on Friday 8^th Jan.

As the holidays are approaching I have given the children an extra week to complete this work.

Merry Christmas to you all!
