Friday 23rd June 2023 – Looking Back & Forth in Year 2
Looking back:
A super week in school. It is so wonderful to have the children and teachers from Elizabethfontain with us. In English we have been exploring Rosie Revere and learning new vocabulary. In maths we are learning to tell the time to 5 minutes. In History we have been learning about the features of castles and making a coat of arms. We have been enjoying lots of dancing with the children from Elizabethfontain and also finding out about their school. The children are very excited about Rose Day tomorrow!
